美国实用主义哲学框架中的语用学

A Study of Pragmatics from the Perspectives of American Pragmatism

实用主义哲学的发展为当代语用学的诞生奠定了基础。实用主义哲学的主要代表人物皮尔斯的实用主义及普遍符号学思想第一次对语言的意义从实用的角度进行了深入分析,使语用学思想在美国有了体系性和建设性的发展;詹姆斯继承发展了皮尔斯的语用思想,突出了效用原则;杜威从实践等多个角度丰富了语用思想,为语用学在美国的发展拓宽了思路;莫里斯的符号学则第一次正是将语用学作为一个术语提出,对语用学作为一门独立学科的建立产生了直接影响。

The development of pragmatism laid a solid foundation for the emergence of modern pragmatics. As a main representative of pragmatism, Peirce＇s idea of pragmatism and semiotics firstly made a deep practical analysis of the meanings of language, which pushed forward pragmatic thinking I a systematic and constructive way. James further developed Peirce＇s idea and emphasized the principle of utilitarianism. Dewey enriched pragmatic thinking from the perspective of practice. Morris put forward the term pragmatics and his idea directly influenced the construction of modern pragmatics.
