Abstract

abstract:In the West's Will to Know and its attendant rhetorical forms, speech has been related to silence in primarily three ways. In rhetoric and dialectic, speech pursues speech; in rhetorical education, silence pursues speech; and in sacred, ascetic rhetoric, silence pursues silence. These three relations of speech to silence as a form of knowledge in the Western rhetorical tradition leave a fourth untraversed. Yet to be explored is speech in pursuit of silence. This essay turns to the Buddhist tradition of rhetoric and dialectic to identify a form of knowledge where speech—negation—pursues silence. I then trace the same model of negatory speech in pursuit of silence in the long-repressed practice of sophistic antilogos.

追求沉默的演讲

摘要：在西方的“知情意志”及其伴随的修辞形式中，言语与沉默的关系主要有三个方面。在修辞学和辩证法中，言语追求言语；在修辞教育中，沉默追求言说；在神圣的、禁欲主义的修辞中，沉默追求沉默。在西方修辞学传统中，言语与沉默作为一种知识形式的这三种关系留下了第四种未被精通的关系。然而有待探索的是追求沉默的言论。本文从佛教修辞学和辩证法的传统入手，来确定一种言说——否定——追求沉默的知识形式。然后，在长期压抑的诡辩反理性实践中，我追踪了同样的否定言语模式，以追求沉默。
