中西思维方式差异说辩难

从思维发生学的意义上来说,中西思维决无实质性的不同.思维差异说的逻辑错误,是把语篇写作策略、话语的表达策略等语用规则等同于思维方式,导致线性思维和圆式思维之分的谬误大面积泛滥,关联理论有助于揭示不同语用策略的同一性.

Questioning the Theory of the Different Thinking Manners between China and the West

This paper argues that some scholars who published widely in recent years in academic journals to assert the different thinking methods between China and the West actually lack in enough support either in defining it or proving it systematically and scientifically. The logic error of their presumption of the different thinking methods between China and the West is that these scholars mistakenly treat the different writing discourse strategies and the dialogue expressional strategy as well as the pragmatic rules as equally as different thinking methods.
