西方哲学史上人格同一性的三种形态

Three Patterns of Personality Identity in the History of Western Philosophy

人格同一性主要是指自我意识的同一性而不是机体的同一性,它与西方哲学的一些基本概念“自我”、“个体”、“灵魂”、“精神”等密切相关。人格同一性概念内在的含藏着个体性与普遍性的矛盾。在西方哲学史上,存在过形而上学的实体人格同一性、现象学的逻辑人格同一性和自由意志的道德人格同一性。

Personality identity refers to the identity of self- conscious ness, not that of the body. It is closely related to such concepts in Western ph ilosophy as “ ego” , “ individual” , “ soul” and “ spirit” .Personality identity contains the contradiction between individuality and universality. In the history of western philosophy, personality identity presents itself in three patterns: substantive personality identity of metaphysics, logical personality identity of phenomenology, and moral personality identity of free will.
