Abstract

Early analytic philosophy is known for its logical rigor that seems to leave no place for non-rational sources of knowledge such as mystical experiences. The following paper shows on the example of Bertrand Russell and Ludwig Wittgenstein that despite of this early analytic philosophy was interested in mysticism and it also shows the roots of this interest. For Russell an application of logical methods to solving philosophical puzzled was an expression of a more fundamental striving – to know the world as it is, sub specie aeternitatis – which is mystical in nature. In turn early Wittgenstein’s philosophy sets the limits of meaningful propositions and provides the distinction between what can be said and what can only be shown and what manifests itself in the world. The latter belongs to the realm of the mystical.
神秘主义与早期分析哲学
早期的分析哲学以其逻辑的严谨性而闻名,似乎没有给非理性的知识来源(如神秘经验)留下任何余地。下面的文章以伯特兰·罗素和路德维希·维特根斯坦为例,说明尽管早期的分析哲学对神秘主义很感兴趣,同时也说明了这种兴趣的根源。对于罗素来说,用逻辑方法来解决哲学难题是一种更基本的努力的表达——了解世界的本来面目,亚种永恒——这在本质上是神秘的。反过来,早期维特根斯坦的哲学设定了有意义命题的界限,并提供了什么可以说,什么只能显示,什么在世界上表现出来之间的区别。后者属于神秘的领域。
