哲学不是专业——重申捍卫形而上学

Philosophy is Not a Discipline:reaffirming the Defense of Metaphysics

哲学包含一系列二级专业,但是,哲学不是专业,既不是某一专业,也不是诸专业的组合或叠加。哲学只有超越其专业,哲学才能保持为哲学。哲学与时代密切相关,它甚至是一个时代之为一个时代的标志,但是,哲学能成为一个时代的标识物恰恰在于它能超越其时代的时代病。所以,哲学总是以与其时代保持距离的方式属于它的时代。这种需要通过超越专业与时代来保持自身的哲学,在根本上就是一种朝向绝对与深渊这种“人类多余物”的形而上学。近代以来对哲学之为这种形而上学的批判与否定所带来的后果表明,今天到了需要通过捍卫形而上学来捍卫人类自身存在所应有的高度与强度的时候,而这在根本上意味着需要重新恢复本原、绝对、整体、空—无这些因人而多出来的非现场域在哲学中的地位。

Philosophy encompasses a range of secondary specialties;however,philosophy is not a disciplineit is neither a single specialty nor a combination or aggregation of various specialties.Only by transcending its specialties can philosophy maintain itself as philosophy.Philosophy is closely related to its time;it is even a hallmark of an era.However,the very reason philosophy can signify an era is that it can transcend the malady of the times.Thus,philosophy always belongs to its time in a way that keeps a distance from it.Philosophy needs to maintain its identity by transcending specialties and times;fundamentally,it is a metaphysics oriented toward the absolute and the abyss,which are"human excess",The results of criticisms and denials of philosophy as such a metaphysics since modern times indicate that today,we have reached a point where it is necessary to defend the height and intensity of human existence through the defense of metaphysics.This fundamentally means the need to restore the status of arche,the absolute,the whole,and the void within philosophy as non-present fields that are excessive because of human.
