AB - This thesis handles with Teilhard de Chardin's human understanding. He lived as a scientist and a Catholic priest in the first half of 20th century. His evolutionary thoughts was criticized as metaphysical by the scientists and as scientistic by priests. Nowadays his insights have been recognized as opening up the new direction of science and religion. The first half of this thesis explores his human understanding under the titles of 'material and mind,' 'material and life,' and 'humanization and super-humanization.' The other half analyses the implications of his understanding with regard to his problematic topics of 'the identity between system and consciousness,' 'the collective cerebralization,' and 'symbiosis and love.'His human understanding is holistic and teleological above all. He didn't believe that human was the product of accident and regarded human as the core product of the cosmic evolution in the long process of cosmogenesis. He believed that human had the important role and aim of being self-conscious of cosmic evolution. His conclusions derived from the scientific data is not so much scientific as philosophical. This thesis tries to enforce his philosophical arguments with the new scientific discoveries.
