论西塞罗对伊壁鸠鲁“隐秘无闻”生活准则的批判

Study on the Cicero's Criticism on "Living Unknown" as a Major Doctrine of Epicurus

"隐秘无闻"的生活准则被视为伊壁鸠鲁哲学的主要教义。这一准则被古代很多思想家提出来加以批判,从中窥探出这一教义在当时的影响之大。在诸多批评者中,西塞罗无疑更富于善辩和哲学趣味,虽然他的批评未必能使正统的伊壁鸠鲁主义者信服,但在某种程度上却触动了伊壁鸠鲁哲学中存在的问题。通过考察西塞罗的批判,不仅可以深化对伊壁鸠鲁的认识,也能够认识到西塞罗对古典共和精神的真诚信念及其至高的政治理念。

＂ Living Unknown＂ is regarded as a major doctrine to Epicureanism. The precept has been criticized by some ancientthinkers to explore the enormous impact at that time. Cicero was no doubt more eloquent and philosophically among critics, althoughhis criticism fails to conviction for orthodox Epicureanism, he can point to difficulties about Epicureanism. By studying on Cicero＇sCriticism, we can not only further understand the Epicureanism, but also realized Cicero＇s good faith in classical republicanism and supreme politics.
