休谟问题及其启示

Hume's Question and Its Revelations

在近代认识史上,休谟问题是向人类理性提出的最大挑战。该问题的核心就是休谟对因果关系和归纳法所做的两个著名论证。休谟问题之产生,完全是由经验主义的原则而导致的。经验主义否认人类有能力突破感官的限制,主张人的认识只能封闭在自身的感觉经验之中。这就是问题的症结所在。所以,要真正解决休谟问题,就必须跳出经验主义的牢笼。

The Hume＇s question is the greatest challenge to the human rationality in the modem cognition history. In this text the author holds that the core of the question is the Hume＇ s two famous proofs which do to the causal relation and the induction method. Therefore, the author has annotated these two proofs and conclusions and explained the initiation philosophy question and its influence. The author views that the Hume＇ s question occurs completely due to the empiricism principle. The empiricism denies that human beings have the ability to break through the limit of the sense organ,and advocates that human beings＇ understanding can＇ t go beyond their own experience. It is the crux of the problem. In conclusion,to solve the Hume＇ s question, we must abandon the empiricism.
