唯有人拥有世界--兼与舒红跃教授商榷

Only Human Beings Own the World--Respond Prof.Shu Hongyue on the Distinction of Human Beings and Animals

本文系对舒红跃的《人与动物之间有没有一条不可逾越的鸿沟?》一文的回应。笔者试图澄清人与动物在“世界”关系问题上的差别,并提出对基于生成概念的生命哲学的反对。海德格尔反思此在的基点是,人和动物间具有绝对区别,“世界”、死亡对人存在不同意义。要思考此在,需要首先澄清此在的事实性特征,这就是人的创制行为,它就是人与动物间不可逾越的鸿沟。

This paper is in response to Prof.Shu Hongyue's“Is there an inevitable gap between human beings and animals”.I intend to clarify the distinction between human beings and animals on their relationship with the“world”.This clarification will propose a criticism of the philosophy of life,whose foundation lies on the concept“becoming”.My standpoint sits beside Martin Heidegger's thought of Dasein.The basic view of Dasein is that the“world”and death denote different senses to human beings and animals.The fact is that Dasein lives in a poiesis—a living style of creating meaning.This is the inevitable gap between human beings and animals.
