语词意义理论的经验主义再解读

在实证科学与人文哲学日益分离的今天,特别是在哲学发生了语言学转向以来,对语词的研究成为哲学与语言学两大领域的焦点,而对语词的研究不可避免地又指向了意义。纵观目前为止的意义理论,不外乎指称论、行为论、使用论、观念论等几种。前三种因其显而易见的缺陷,在本文中只是简要略过,而观念论则是谈论的重点。拟站在观念论基础上对语词意义理论进行经验主义再解读,以期获得观念论的不同视角。

Re-explaining the Meaning Theory of Words on the Basis of Empiricism

In the present day when the segregation between positive science and humanistic philosophy is becoming more and more obvious,especially since the attention of philosophy has turned to language,the meaning study of words in the language becomes the focus of the two learning fields——linguistics and philosophy.Take a panoramic view of all the meaning theories at the present,there exist the theory of designation,the theory of behaviorism,the theory of usage,and the theory of concept,etc.The three theories before the last have distinct drawbacks,so we roughly mention them in retrospect,and the last theory of concept is the focus of this thesis.On the basis of the general concept theory,this paper tries to re-explain the said meaning theory of concept from the point of empiricism,meanwhile believes that concept is not absolutely equal to the subject,and the interaction between the subject and the object should not be overlooked.And this is the novelty to which this thesis is dedicated.
