当代西方哲学“诠释学循环”立场之批判

The Critique On the Position of “Hermeneutic Circle” in Contemporary Philosophy

当代西方哲学“诠释学循环”的要害在于,在所谓的部分与整体循环关系观念下,把存在结构认识化。其实,存在论中的部分与整体关系并不构成一种循环,因为它们互相依存而向对方设置自身,它们没有独立存在形态,不能分离抽引为某种逻辑关系的端项。诠释学循环论者没有区分文本存在的客观自在关联和文本意义的主观把握的现实形式,笼统地把文本的全部具体存在作为理解和解释的内容,最终导致所谓诠释学循环。完成态的存在构造的确具有部分—整体的协同联系和制约结构,但问题是制造这一成果的认识过程为何。诠释学循环的错误是由于误认认识结果的结构为认识过程的结构而导致的。

The key of affirmation of ＂Hermeneutic Circle＂ lies in the transformation of the structure of Being into cognition in terms of what is called the relationship of circle between part and Whole. In fact, the ontological relationship between part and whole doesn＇t form a circle. The reason for this is that they are entangled with each other and one sets itself into another, and thus can＇t be the poles of a logical relationship through separated from each other. Those holding the Hermeneutic Circle don＇t distinguish the relativity of naturally conceived text-being to objective being in itself from the form of subjectively grasped reality of the meaning of the text, which thus finally results in what is called ＂Hermeneutic Circle＂. Nobody denies that the constitution of being done has a harmonizing relation and conditioning structure with regard to Part-Whole. But the problem lies in that the result of the process of knowing is not necessary to have the same structure as the form of being of the result has. In Short, ＂Hermeneutic Circle＂ is a false problem made by misunderstanding of identifying the structure of the result of knowing with that of the process of knowing.
