柏拉图文论的理性思辨及其时代成因

The Rational Speculationof Platon Literary Theory and Its Age Causes

在各种反思、修正和批判之中,柏拉图努力践行着理性思辨精神,并向后世展示出一种辉煌的理性人格。柏拉图文论中的理性思辨思维方式的产生有着强大的时代动力,一方面源于城邦生活与民主制度的完善;另一方面也得益于古希腊人所特有的民族精神与个性气质。此外,柏拉图将"对话"扩大为一种独立的文学形式,通过"对话"可以灵动地表达和阐述自己的思想,从而实现理性精神的超越。通过分析,可以发现柏拉图的理性思辨之于当代社会文化具有某种精神上的指引作用。

Among the various reflections,revisions and critiques,Plato strived to fulfill the rational speculative spirit,and demonstrated a kind of glorious rational personality to the later ages. The creation of the rational speculation way of thought in Platon literary theories has strong time dynamics. For one thing,it originates from the perfection of the city life and democratic system,and for the other,it also benefits from the unique national spirit as well as the personality and temperament of the ancient Greeks. Moreover,Plato expands the＂dialogue＂into a kind of independent literary form. By＂dialogue＂,his thoughts can be vividly expressed and elaborated,thus realizing the transcendence of the rational spirit. By analysis,it can be found that Platon rational speculation has certain spiritual guidance effects on the contemporary social culture.
