休谟“旁观者”的同情理论探微

Reviewing on Hume's sympathy theory based on "spectator"

基于经验主义的方法,休谟论证道德源于情感而非理性,同情是道德的基础。作为道德基础的同情是基于旁观者立场的同情,具有普遍性。同情的道德基础作用在道德的效用原则实现中得到体现。坚持同情的旁观者立场,需矫正个体同情的差异性。

Basing on the method of empiricism,Hume proved that moral derives from emotion,not from reason.Sympathy based on spectator makes the basis of moral,which is universal.The basic function of sympathy is reflected in the principle of Utility.Adhering to the spectator＇s sympathy needs to rectify the differences in individual sympathy.
