现代西方哲学在心灵与身体之间的关系问题上往往陷于困境。摆脱困境的一个切入点是身体性自我知识,比如我们关于自己肢体姿势的知识。本文拟就此作一初步探索。出发点是以下论断:这种知识不是观察知识(安斯康姆)或感知性知识(麦克道尔)。进而阐释安斯康姆的另一论断,即这种知识的内容只能通过关涉身体本身的词汇来描述,“无法分离描述”。该论断凸显了身体性自我知识与五官感觉知识的不同特征,但是否足以断定它不是感知性知识,还有待进一步考量。
Modern Western philosophy is often in a dilemma on the relationship between the mind and the body. An entry point to getting out of the woods is physical self-knowledge, such as our knowledge of our body posture. This article is intended to make a preliminary exploration of this. The starting point is the assertion that this knowledge is not observational knowledge (Ainscombe) or perceptual knowledge (McDowell). And then explain another Ainscomb’s assertion that the content of this knowledge can only be described through the vocabulary of the body itself, “can not be separated description ”. This conclusion highlights the different characteristics of physical self-knowledge and facial sensation, but whether it is sufficient to conclude that it is not perceptual knowledge remains to be further considered.
