智慧与哲学:关于哲学起源的争论

Wisdom and Philosophy: Debate on the Origin of Philosophy

关于哲学起源的问题与人们对哲学独特的本质属性和价值追求的理解密切相关,是学习和探讨哲学的首要问题,只有首先搞清楚了哲学的起源问题,才能更好地进一步深入学习和探讨哲学的流派传承、学说主张、主题转向等其他问题。通过对“哲学”一词最早产生和使用情况的分析可知,哲学起源于古希腊,发源于“七贤”,阿那克西曼德是第一位哲学家。

The issue on the origin of philosophy,which is closely related to people’s understanding of the unique nature and value pursuit of philosophy,is the fi rst issue to explore for the study of philosophy.Only when we understand the origin of philosophy at fi rst,can we better further study and explore other issues,such as the inheritance of philosophical schools,the philosophical doctrines,the turn of philosophical themes and so on.By analyzing the earliest emergence and use of the word“philosophy”,we can see that philosophy has roots in ancient Greece,and starts from the“seven sages”,among whom Anaximander was the fi rst philosopher.
