论《俄狄浦斯王》中的无知与有知

On Ignorance and Knowledge in Oedipus the King

通过对戏剧《俄狄浦斯王》的分析得出人的自我认知会经历虚假的无知、虚假的有知、真正的“无知”三个阶段。虚假的无知体现了人虽处于无知无欲状态,但不自知,此时也并未与外在产生联系;虚假的有知体现了人在追寻自认为更好的生活中却无知善恶、向外追寻物欲,最后自愿沦为物质的奴隶;真正的“无知”体现了人对未来的无知,一生将在自由选择中去探寻以怎样的方式能达到更好的生活。

Through the analysis of the drama Oedipus the King, it is concluded that human self cognition will go through three stages: false ignorance, false knowledge and real ignorance. False ignorance reflects that although a person is in a state of ignorance and lack of desire, they are not aware of themselves and do not have any connection with the outside world at this time;false knowledge reflects the ignorance of good and evil, the pursuit of material desires, and the voluntary enslavement of material possessions in the pursuit of what one considers a better life;true ignorance reflects a person’s ignorance of the future, and they will explore how to achieve a better life through free choice throughout their lifetime.
