无处不在的情感:以阴阳观之

The Yin/Yang of Pervasive Emotion

通过更新并在哲学上纯化中国古老的阴阳概念,心灵或心可被视为阴阳情感实体。这种被更新或纯化后的阴阳观可使我们更好地解释所有功能良好的心的概念结构,从而为心、信念、欲望、价值、道德敬重、理性乃至非理性奠定情感基础。据此言之,西方对心灵的理解以及标准的分析哲学对信念的看法需作出重大调整。

By updating and philosophically purifying Chinese classical concepts of yin and yang as receptivity and impulsion respectively,heart-mind(xin)can be understood as an emotional thing.This renewed or purified notions of yin and yang can make us better understand conceptual construction of functioning xin,which will lay the sentimental groundwork for xin,belief,desire,value,moral respect,rationality and irrationality.In this case,the Western concept of mind as well as the standard understanding of belief in the analytic philosophy shall be adjusted in a significant way.
