意义、使用和实指——论《哲学研究》第43节的三种阐释视角

Meaning,Use and Ostention:Three Interpretations in Philosophical Investigations §43

在有关《哲学研究》第43节的三种阐释视角中,“局部式”阅读的优点是忠实原文,它基于该节上下文语境,因而认为§43b是焦点.但“局部式”读者忽略了后期维氏以描述为主的“评论式”哲学方法与视角.“总体式”阅读视角比“局部式”视角更广阔.虽然“总体式”读者认为§43a是焦点,但是他们也忽视了维氏在序言中的有关说明.对第43节两句话重要性争论的解决需要“整体式”阅读视角.

Based on my investigation of three interpretations on§43 inthe Philosophical Investigations,I found that the“local”reading isadvantageous in that it is accurate to the original text and fitting the contextwhich is surrounding§43,therefore identifying§43b as the focus of§43.However,1 think the“local”reading neglects later Wittgenstein'sdescriptive method of philosophizing and misses the insight of his bird's-eye-view in philosophy too.Although the“global”reading has a broader view thanthe“local”reading,it neglects three key notions identified in Wittgenstein's“preface”to the Philosophical Investigations.Consequently,the“global”reader treats§43a as the focus of the interpretive gap.I argue that theproblem between§43a and§43b can be dissolved through a“holistic”reading.
