In this book Rorty argues that thinkers such as Nietzsche, Freud, and Wittgenstein have enabled societies to see themselves as historical contingencies, rather than as expressions of underlying, ahistorical human nature or as realizations of suprahistorical goals. This ironic perspective on the human condition is valuable on a private level, although it cannot advance the social or political goals of liberalism. In fact Rorty believes that it is literature not philosophy that can do this, by promoting a genuine sense of human solidarity. A truly liberal culture, acutely aware of its own historical contingency, would fuse the private, individual freedom of the ironic, philosophical perspective with the public project of human solidarity as it is engendered through the insights and sensibilities of great writers. The book has a characteristically wide range of reference from philosophy through social theory to literary criticism. It confirms Rorty's status as a uniquely subtle theorist, whose writing will prove absorbing to academic and nonacademic readers alike.
因为最近着迷维特根斯坦,我又翻出罗蒂这本书,一些阅读记录和随意的想法如下: 1. 语言的偶然性继承后期维特根斯坦,世界或人类并没有一个内在的本质,所谓科学与艺术的进步并不意味着我们更接近自然或人性的“本质”,而是我们选择用不同的语汇进行再描述,是一组新的隐喻诞...
评分 评分一 当代最有影响力的实用主义哲学是为理查德·罗蒂所主张的一种激进理论,这种理论尖锐地反对主流的哲学立场。主流的哲学性真理观认为,真有一个外在的、客观的、非人类中心主义的标准,而罗蒂认为这种观念对于我们的生活实践来说并无直接意义,或者至多不过有一种修辞学上的...
评分 评分网上经常能看到XX岁之前一定要做的事,或是死前一定要做的事。我觉的如果是我列这个单子,第一项一定会是——别担心,我不会说去读《偶然,讽刺,团结》这种老套的推荐词的——经历一件可以改变你世界观的事情。人生最刺激的经历莫过于此。好似之前一直模糊的图片终于对准了焦...
the opposite of irony is common sense
评分罗蒂是个很厉害的家伙,他的文字和逻辑总是让人感觉各种不对劲,但却总是说不上不对劲在哪。读到最后我才发现,不对劲的原因恰恰在于:其实罗蒂既不像诗人,也不像哲人,而更像个 metaphysician, philosophe 和 theoretecian
评分写纸的时候着重谈论了public and private splite的问题,当时还没有读普鲁斯特和德里达的两章,感觉罗蒂的着笔更像早期实用主义去除了感情的部分。现在过了挺久又补上两章更能明白罗蒂在谈论的是什么,历史真实不能用道德去理解,很多历史重大事件的产生也往往源于一些很小的偶然。
