直觉与诗意表达:品味柏格森与庄子之哲学语言

Intuition and Poetic Expression: On the Philosophical Language of Bergson and Zhuangzi

《庄子》论述了"言不尽意"的语言观,柏格森也指出语言符号的局限性:它是僵化的、静止的、空间化的,因而无法表达动态的、整体性的、时间性的心理的"绵延"。柏格森与庄子都认识到语言不能表达直觉,不能认识实在,而他们的哲学著作都具有文学特质,他们都采用诗一般的语言,构建了他们独特的诗化哲学。

Zhuangzi had dissertated on the linguistic viewpoint that ＂the speech does not express the meaning perfectly＂. Bergson also pointed out the limitation of linguistic symbols that they are fixed, static, and spatialized, thus it could not express dynamical, entire and timely mental ＂la dur6e＂. Bergson and Zhuangzi both recognized that language cannot express intuition and cannot understand the reality. Both of their philosophical works have the special essence of literature in which both of them express their life philosophies in poetry language and construct their own special poetic philosophies.
