摘要

自20世纪90年代以来，社会神经科学已将模仿确立为人类身份的无意识构成要素;以至于人们可以合理地说，人类的身份是模仿的身份。这项研究对人类普遍迷恋模仿以及特定种类的模仿有着深远的影响。就模仿者的身份而言，模仿者是独一无二的，但却有着奇特的魅力。这一点很容易从人类模仿人类的漫长历史故事中看出。菲利普·迪克的《机器人会梦见电子羊吗?》是这类故事历史上的一个重要条目。这篇文章展示了关于模仿身份的社会神经科学发现如何帮助我们理解迪克的小说。

The Fascination of Imitation: What Social Neuroscience Reveals about Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

ABSTRACT Since the 1990s, social neuroscience has established imitation as an unconscious, constitutive element of human identity; to the point that one may reasonably say that human identity is imitative identity. This research has profound implications for the human fascination with imitation in general, as well as with specific kinds of imitation. For the imitative identity, imitation human beings are uniquely, but strangely fascinating. This may readily be seen from the long history of stories about humanly made imitation humans. Philip K. Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? is a major entry in the history of such stories. This article shows how social-neuroscientific findings about imitative identity can help us understand Dick’s novel.
