如何自学欧陆哲学? 第1页

关于自学当代欧陆哲学的方法，我发邮件询问了新墨西哥大学哲学教授、Philpapers的欧陆哲学总编辑保罗·利文斯顿（Paul Livingston）。我问了他三个问题：

1. 自学当代欧陆哲学，是否必须阅读法语或者德语文本？
2. 如何了解欧陆哲学的最新研究？
3. 应该按照什么顺序阅读欧陆哲学？

经利文斯顿教授同意，我将他的回复翻译并分享出来。

Thank you very much for your letter, and thank you also for your interest in my work! Let me try to address your questions in order. First, no, I think it is not necessary to read in French and German if you have a good command of English, since almost everything is translated into English these days. Only if you are working with texts at a high specialist level is it really necessary.

非常感谢你的来信，也感谢你对我工作的兴趣！让我试着按照顺序回答你的问题吧。首先，不，我认为如果你对英文有很好的掌握，那么读法文和德文就不是必需的，因为现在基本上什么东西都被翻译成英文了。只有当你在一个高度专业化的水平上处理文本的时候，它才是真正必需的。

For new work, I would look at a few journals that are good and are publishing a lot of contemporary discussion. One would be Continental Philosophy Review which is a general continental phil. journal with lots of perspectives represented. I believe it is still not available open-access online, but if you are connected to a university library you should be able to get access to it. Two others that I would mention (that I believe are online) are Cosmos and History and Philosophy Today. For new books, both Bloomsbury https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/academic/philosophy/ and Edinburgh U. Press https://www.ed.ac.uk/ppls/philosophy are publishing a lot of good ones recently.

至于新作，我会看一些很好的发表很多当代讨论的期刊。其中一个是《欧陆哲学评论》，它是一个呈现多种视角的一般性的欧陆哲学期刊。我相信它仍然没有网络上的开放获取权限，不过如果你联接到一个大学图书馆，你应该就可以获得它的获取权限了。其他两个我想提到的（我相信是在线的）期刊是《宇宙与历史》和《今日哲学》。至于新书，布鲁姆斯伯里（https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/academic/philosophy/）和爱丁堡大学出版社（https://www.ed.ac.uk/ppls/philosophy）最近正在出版很多好书。

The last question is harder since the answer will vary a lot depending on what branch or area of continental you are interested in working on, and also how far back into the history you want to go. I would say that a lot of discussions these days still presuppose at least some knowledge of Heidegger's Being and Time, so that is probably a good place to start if you haven't worked through it yet. Sometimes (and more and more these days) people also go back to Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit and so that is another one to master in the history. More recently though, of course, there are different approaches and schools. If you look at http://philpapers.org under "Continental Philosophy" https://philpapers.org/browse/continental-philosophy you can see a structure of figures and movements that I think is representative (or, was when I wrote it :-) ). So I would suggest you look around there and see what seems interesting.

All best,

最后一个问题比较难回答，因为根据你有兴趣研究欧陆的什么分支或领域，以及你想在历史中回溯多远，答案会有很大变化。我想说，现在的很多讨论仍然预设至少一些关于海德格尔的《存在与时间》的知识，所以如果你还没读过的话，那可能是一个很好的起点。有时候（而且现在越来越多了），人们也会回到黑格尔的《精神现象学》，所以那是另一个历史上需要掌握的著作。不过最近的话，当然了，有很多不同的进路和学派。如果你查看http://philpapers.org的“欧陆哲学”（https://philpapers.org/browse/continental-philosophy），你会看到一个人物和运动的结构，我认为它是有代表性的（或者，至少在我写它的时候是这样:-)）。所以我会建议你逛逛那里，看看什么看起来比较有趣。

祝好，

保罗
