摘要

杜夏特莱对牛顿吸引力的立场有两个神秘的变化：从《光学论》（Essai sur L'Optique，约1938-1939年）中接受牛顿吸引力为解释原理，到《1740年制度》中拒绝接受，再到她对《牛顿原理》的评论（1756年）中再次接受。在本文中，我建议我们从 1742 年的《制度》中寻找答案。在那里，杜夏特莱引入了物理解释，并坚持认为我们可以利用某些物理特性（如吸引力）来获得解释力。通过这一案例研究，我认为学术界将从 1742 年版本中获益匪浅。

Towards a new phase of Du Châtelet scholarship: from Institutions de Physique (1740) to Institutions Physiques (1742)

There is a mysterious two-fold change in Du Châtelet’s position on Newtonian attraction: from acceptance thereof as an explanatory principle in Essai sur L’Optique (ca. 1938-1939), to rejection in the 1740 Institutions, and returning to acceptance again in her Commentary (1756) to Newton’s Principia. In this paper, I suggest that we turn to the 1742 Institutions for answers. There, Du Châtelet introduces physical explanation and maintains that we can appeal to certain physical qualities (such as attraction) for explanatory force. Using this case study, I argue that the scholarship will benefit greatly from turning to the 1742 edition going forward.
