摘要
关于斯宾诺莎几何学方法的本性或意义,目前出现了形式主义和实质主义两种对立的解读。形式主义者认为,几何学方法是一种富有成效的教学法,但它本质上是一种能够用来传达任何哲学思想的方法或工具。实质主义者认为,斯宾诺莎哲学的内容与其陈述形式密切相关,几何学方法是表达其思想的唯一适合的模式。实际上,这两种解读各有其局限,二者本应是相容的,换言之,尽管与其思想内容紧密相关,几何学方法也不是斯宾诺莎必然的陈述形式,而只是一种富有成效的教学法。此外,由于斯宾诺莎从未将数学和形而上学混为一谈,因此,哲学中的数学模式也从未被视为一种本真的“理想”。
Regarding the nature or significance of Spinoza’s geometrical method,there are currently two opposing interpretations of formalism and essentialism.Formalists believed that the geometric method was a productive pedagogy,but it was essentially a method or tool that could be used to convey any philosophical idea.Essentialists believed that the content of Spinoza’s philosophy was closely related to its statement form,and the geometric method was the only suitable mode to express his thoughts.In fact,these two interpretations have their own limitations,and they should have been compatible,in other words,although closely related to the content of his thought,the geometrical method is not Spinoza’s necessary form of presentation,but only a fruitful teaching method.Moreover,since Spinoza never confused mathematics with metaphysics,the mathematical model in philosophy was never considered an authentic"ideal".
