论工程的本质——海德格尔、亚里士多德和柏拉图视角的一种解读

On the Essence of Engineering——Reading from the Perspective of Heidegger,Aristotle and Plato

工程的本质是工程哲学研究的重要内容之一。从工程实践活动视角出发界定工程概念,并没有囊括工程本质的全部内涵。工程活动、工程师和工程物是工程整体的主要部分,工程的本质是这三者的本质的统一。工程在本质上是与人的生存及世界相关联的,工程不仅是人类的一种实践活动过程,还是对人类生存于其中的"世界整体"的敞开过程。工程通过工程活动建造工程物所开启的"空间",聚集"世界整体"于一处,而让人的生存展开。

The study on the engineering essence is one of the most important contents in philosophy of engineering. Defining the concept of engineering from the perspective of engineering practice can＇t cover all the meaning of engineering essence. Engineering activity, engineer and engineering artifact are the major parts of the engineering whole, the essence of engineering is. unified by the essence of the three parts. The essence of engineering makes connection with the human existence and the word, it is not only a process of human＇s practicing activity, but also an unlimited course of the ＂World＂ that people lives in. Engineering assembles the ＂world＂ in one place to deploy human＇s living by opening the ＂space＂ which created through constructing engineering artifact.
