Abstract

ABSTRACT In this paper, I suggest an ethical reading of Husserl’s theory of primordial reduction, which has been criticized for excluding the other from the outset and not doing justice to genuine alterity. I propose to interpret primordial reduction as a “putting into question” not only the intentional relatedness with the other but also transcendental ego’s activity that confers meaning upon the other, so as to understand the other’s primordial givenness that precedes egoic act. I argue that this reading can reveal two correlated issues: first, primordial reduction essentially alters the transcendental sphere by decentralizing the transcendental ego; second, primordial reduction is radical only to the extent that it is existentially motivated by a transcendental other. I suggest that Husserl’s theory of primordial reduction implicitly comprises of an ethical aspect that is of fundamental affinity with Levinas’s methodic operation in Totality and Infinity.

变革与道德沦丧

摘要：在本文中，我建议对胡塞尔的原始还原理论进行伦理解读，该理论被批评为从一开始就排斥他人，没有公正对待真正的冲突。我建议将原始还原解释为“质疑”，不仅是与他人的有意关联，而且是赋予他人意义的超越自我的活动，从而理解他人在自我行为之前的原始给予。我认为，这本书可以揭示两个相关的问题：首先，原始还原通过分散先验自我从本质上改变了先验领域；第二，原始还原只有在存在性地受到超越性他者的驱动的情况下才是激进的。我认为，胡塞尔的原始还原理论隐含地包含了一个伦理方面，这与莱维纳斯在《整体性与无限性》中的方法论操作具有根本的亲和力。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
