论理查德·罗蒂“想象力”概念

On Richard Rorty's Concept of Imagination

罗蒂的"诗性文化"是以文学取代宗教、哲学占主导地位的文化,也是推崇"想象力"的"自由主义乌托邦"的文化。罗蒂所言的"想象力"不仅包括个人完美角度的想象和人类团结角度的想象,还包括未来社会的乌托邦想象。罗蒂的"想象力"概念既是对于浪漫主义文学的继承,亦实践着新实用主义"哲学成为文化政治"的主张。

Richard Rorty constructs "a poetized culture",in which literature substitutes for religion and philosophy as the leading role of culture.It is the "culture"respecting "imagination"and "liberal utopia".The "imagination"of Rorty includes not only the imagination of private perfection and human solidarity,but also the utopian imagination of the future.Rorty's "imagination" carries forward the concept of romantic literature,as well as practices the proposition of "philosophy as cultural politics"of neopragmatism.
