阳明心学视阈下“向内而求”的元理论建议——针对西方译学界“凝滞于物”的学理风险

A Meta-theoretical Proposal of Inward Investigation from the Perspective of Wang Yangming’s Philosophy of Mind: A Solution to the Risk of Stagnant-with-Discourses Cognition of Western Translation Theories

西方译学界过度偏向“向外而求”的元理论思维,因而导致“凝滞于物”的学理风险,易于陷入来自各种理论话语的割裂与钳制。本文在阳明心学的观照下提出“向内而求”的元理论建议,主张通过自心反思澄明良知,生发出译论认知之良能,以祛除“凝滞于物”的学理风险。这一基于中国心学智慧的思维有助于克服西方译学割裂的理论视野,远离理论话语表象的钳制,进而趋向圆融自在的学理姿态。

Over-preference for the metatheory of Outward Investigation leads Western translation theories(WTT)into the risk of Stagnant-with-Discourses cognition,which causes fragmenting and cramping theoretical discourses.From the perspective of Wang Yangming’s philosophy of mind,this paper instead proposes a metatheory of Inward Investigation which advocates natural cognitive capacity out of a clarified conscience,targeting at eliminating the cognitive risk.By converging WTT fragments and distancing from cramping discourses,this proposal approaches a harmonious and anxiety-free metatheoretical mind.
