从发生的视角对本质直观悖论的化解--兼对陈嘉明教授的回应

Resolution of the Paradox in the Essential Intuition from the Perspective of Genesis

本质直观在胡塞尔现象学中居于基础性地位,正是因为有了本质直观的方法,本质才得以被构造出来,形式本体论和区域本体论才得以可能。但是,有学者认为在本质直观中隐含着悖论,并以此来质疑本质直观。为此,我们借助发生的视角,从“被动性”与“主动性”出发,重新考察本质直观的三个环节,并尤其突出“被动性”在第二个环节中所起到的决定性作用。基于对“被动性”的深层考察,我们揭示出“内时间”、“原联想”的基础性作用,进而化解隐含在本质直观中的“悖论”。陈嘉明教授在其文章中对胡塞尔的本质直观提出了怀疑,我们在此恰好可以对其作出回应,并从发生的视角为本质直观作出辩护。

The essential intuition is the basis of Husserl’s phenomenology.It is precisely because of the essential intuition that the essential category can be constructed,formal ontology and regional ontology can be possible.However,some people think that the essential intuition implies paradox,and in this way criticize the essential intuition.This paper re-examines the three basic aspects of essential intuition from the perspective of the genesis and the perspective of passiveness and activeness,especially highlighting the decisive role played by passiveness in the second aspect.This paper further inquiries into the passivity,and finds that“inner time”and“original association”play a fundamental role.Through this investigation,the so-called“paradox”in the essential intuition is solved.Professor Chen Jiaming raised doubts about Husserl’s essential intuition,and the essential intuition is defended from the perspective of genesis.
