盖仑对亚里士多德“前提”思想的继承与发展

Gelen's Inheritance and Development of Aristotle's Concept of "Premise"

著名医学家和哲学家盖仑非常重视论证的前提。他对论证前提的研究在很大程度上继承和发展了亚里士多德的相关思想。他对"科学的前提"的讨论与亚里士多德的观点相似,而对"辩证的前提"的讨论则与亚里士多德的观点不同。但是,无论从对科学的前提的分析中,还是对与辩证的前提相关的普遍意见的分析中,我们都可以看出盖仑对感觉经验的重视。虽然他对感觉经验的重视似乎更胜于亚里士多德,但他对方法的讨论,以及由此出发而导致的对解剖的重视,其根本的精神仍是秉承亚里士多德的。

Gelen,a famous physician and philosopher,attaches great importance to premises for argument and his related studies are mostly based on the inheritance and development of Aristotle's concept of premise.Gelen's discussion of scientific premise is quite similar to Aristotle's but his discussion of dialectic premise is different from Aristotle's.Though Gelen's analysis of either scientific premise or dialectic premise seems to attach more importance to perceptual experience than Aristotle's,his discussion of the relevant methods as well as his emphasis on anatomy is basically an inheritance of Aristotle's.
