对历史的现象学的发生学研究如何可能?——胡塞尔对几何学和近代物理学意义起源的现象学沉思

How is the Phenomenological Genetic Study of History Possible?——Husserl's Meditation on the Genesis of the Meaning of Geometry and Modern Physics

通过对几何学和近代物理学的意义起源的追问,胡塞尔进而对人类历史作现象学研究是否可能的问题作了进一步的思考。以对几何学的意义起源的追问为例证,胡塞尔论证了我们可以对几何学和整个人类历史作现象学的发生学研究。通过这种方法,我们可以使科学真正奠基于作为我们的历史视域的生活世界。把现象学的研究由静态拓展到历史性的、发生学研究,是实现现象学为科学和整个人类的精神生活奠基的必要前提。甚至可以说,现象学的发生学研究,并不仅仅是对以往现象学的非历史性的静态结构研究、逻辑研究的补充,而是一种更为彻底和根本的现象学研究的途径。

Through inquiring the genesis of the meaning of geometry and modern physics, Husserl conducted a further meditation on the possibility of phenomenological study of human being＇s history. Taking the inquiry about the genesis of the meaning of geometry as an example, Husserl demonstrated that we could use phenomenological genetic method to study geometry as well as the whole history of human beings. By this way, science can really lay its foundation on our living world. It is a necessary prerequisite for making the phenomenology the basis of science and the entire humanity＇s spiritual life to expand phenomenological genetic study from its static state to historical and genetic research. It can even be said that the genetic research of phenomenology is not only a non-historical static structural research on the former phenomenology, or a supplement to the logical research, but a kind of comprehensive and basic path of phenomenology research.
