摘要
参照雅斯贝尔斯的“轴心时代”理论,将进入后现代发展阶段的当下视为“第二轴心时代”的观点正在获得更多关注。人类在这场远未终结的“轴心”演变中会走向何方,由技术、社会与思想构成的人类文化系统理论是分析该问题的有效框架。爬梳《梨俱吠陀》中关于铁的描写细节,再辅以简要回溯铁器时代的普遍生成,一方面可以凸显铁作为文明要素在人类发展史上决定性的“加速”作用,另一方面也将为人们寻找“第二轴心时代”的发展方向提供历史资源。
Referring to Jaspers’Axial Age Theory,the view regarding the current era of post-modern development as the Second Axial Age is gaining more attention.Where will humans go in such Axial evolution which is far from over?The theory of human cultural systems composed of technology,society and thought is an effective framework for analyzing this question.Through a study on the descriptive details of iron in Rigveda and a review of the general origin of the Iron Age,this paper not only highlights the decisive“accelerating”role of iron as a civilized element in human history,but also provides historical resources for people looking for the direction of the Second Axial Age.
