Abstract

Plotinus treats memory not simply as a capacity of the soul, but as an essential part of the process of the soul’s ongoing self-formation. Plotinus argues that memory and forgetting affect the soul, now and in the future. Since memories define who one is and who one is going to be, the soul must learn how it can or should shape memories. I address the topic of memory-shaping in Plotinus not only as an epistemological and metaphysical topic or an ethical problem, but as a “psychological” or “psychotherapeutic” issue.

转动灵魂之镜

普罗提诺不仅将记忆视为灵魂的一种能力，而且将其视为灵魂不断自我塑造过程的重要组成部分。普罗提诺认为，记忆和遗忘影响着灵魂的现在和未来。既然记忆决定了一个人是谁以及他将成为谁，那么灵魂就必须学会如何或应该如何塑造记忆。我在论述普罗提诺的记忆塑造问题时，不仅将其作为一个认识论和形而上学问题或伦理问题，而且还将其作为一个 "心理学 "或 "心理治疗 "问题。
