Abstract

Abstract In Oedipus at Colonus Sophocles shows that neither individual reason nor piety are singularly sufficient for either individual happiness or the common good. Human understanding is dependent on a decentering of the individual, such that the reason of the wider community, including that of the gods, can augment the limitations of individual perspective. Sophocles shows not only the dependence of faith and reason on one another, but the degree to which both are dependent on reciprocal good will within a community.
索福克林认识论:底比斯戏剧中的正义
索福克勒斯在《俄狄浦斯在科洛诺斯》中指出,无论是个人的理性还是虔诚,都不足以实现个人的幸福或共同的利益。人类的理解依赖于个人的去中心化,这样,更广泛的社会的理性,包括神的理性,可以扩大个人视角的局限性。索福克勒斯不仅展示了信仰和理性的相互依赖,而且还展示了两者在多大程度上依赖于一个共同体内的相互善意。
