彼得·贝格尔对边缘情境的合理化阐释

Studies on Berger’s Interpretation to the Rationalization of Limit Situations

边缘情境作为一种生存论处境,长期以来遭受着各种阐释困境。克尔凯郭尔从生存论视域描述了个人置身于边缘情境的种种体验,卡尔·雅斯贝尔斯则明确提出了边缘情境的问题,其后,存在主义哲学、尼采哲学等都曾试图对边缘情境做出解释。彼得·贝格尔试图就边缘情境进行合理化论证。彼得·贝格尔将边缘情境描述为一个人在其生活中“被驱近或驱出决定他日常生存的秩序”。彼得·贝格尔试图走出生存主义在此问题上遭遇的阐释困境,通过神圣价值意义体系来对边缘情境进行宗教性的合理化论证。彼得·贝格尔对边缘情境做的合理化论证,一方面他通过神圣价值体系提供了一个神正论的解释,另一方面也通过对边缘情境的合理化论证,完成了价值秩序的神圣化。

A limit situation is a kind of existential state.Over time it has been subject to many versions of hermeneutics.Kierkegaard described the many different experiences of limit situations from an existential perspective.Karl Jaspers clearly raised the problems related to limit situations,and existentialist philosophy,Nietzsche philosophies,and others all attempt to explain limit situations.Peter Berger tried to rationalize limit situations.Berger described a limit situation as a person being forced in and out of the order that determines his daily existence.He tried to avoid the interpretive dilemmas of existentialism and used a spiritual value system to implement religious rationalization of limit situations.On the one hand,Berger’s interpretation of limit situations provides a theodicy explanation,on the other hand,it completes the sanctification of order of values through the rationalization of limit situations.
