概念史视野下“日本哲学”的诠释与误读

Interpretation and Misinterpretation of Japanese Philosophy from the Perspective of Conceptual History

"philosophy"在近代日本的传播与解读,存在着日本思想家依照所谓的"进步"或者"否定"的自我诠释、依循时代或者国家的必然需要、依据东方文化传统的根本事实而展开诠释的显性特征,同时也存在着将"philosophy"把握为"最高的学问"来统辖一切,使"哲学"与近代日本的"国民道德论"结合在一起,把"日本哲学"树立为"真正的自我"之学问的巨大"误读"。若是站在概念史的视角就这一诠释与误读的现象来加以探究,就可以令我们认识到"哲学"在近代东方遭遇到的挫折与问题,也有利于我们在审视这一段历史的同时展开主体性的批判。

In the process of disseminating and interpreting "philosophy" in modern Japan, there was a distinct feature in which the Japanese philosophers interpreted the word according to the so-called self-interpretation of "progress" or "negation", or they interpreted the word according to the need of the age or the country, or according to the traditions of the eastern culture.Meanwhile, there was also a misinterpretation wherein they took "philosophy" as the highest knowledge to govern everything,combining "philosophy" with a theory of National Morality, and established Japanese Philosophy as the study of real self-ego.Studying this interpretation and misreading from the perspective of conceptual history can help us realize the setbacks and problems encountered by "philosophy" in the modern east, and also help us develop subjective judgment and criticism while reviewing the history.
