体认语言学之语言哲学分析

An Analysis of Embodied-Cognitive Linguistics from Philosophy of Language

哲学主要研究“存在vs思维”的关系,语言哲学通过分析典型语句重铸了这一关系。国外不少学者认为它现已式微,而我们认为它不断在后现代哲学(第四转向)中得以延续,并借助言语行为之语例论述它如何在新转向中得以发展。本文提出,基于马克思主义的唯物辩证法、体验哲学及认知语言学之上建立起来的体认语言学,当视为西语哲之延续,其核心原则“现实—认知—语言”蕴含着深刻的哲理,可基于“存在vs思维”的关系揭示语言的体认成因。本文主要从“学理”和“方法”的角度对此加以论述。

Philosophy is mainly concerned with the relationships between existence and thought, while philosophy of language (PL) recasts them through analysis of typical linguistic expressions. Many foreign scholars think that PL has been on the decline, but we hold that it is continued in the Post -modernist Philosophy (Fourth) Turn, with our examples as a support of how Speech Act is developed in this new turn. The present paper advocates that Embodied- Cognitive Linguistics (ECL), based on Marxist Materialist Dialectics, Embodied Philosophy and Cognitive Linguistics, is also a continuation of PL, and its kernel principle of “Reality-Cognition-Language”carries a deep philosophical implication which plays a role in revealing the body-mind motivation of language via the relationship between existence and thought. This is to be expounded from the viewpoint of scientific principle and analysis method.
