Two widely quoted sayings about the importance of hearing compared with vision, are considered.
Methodology
The words “not to see will distance me from things, while not to listen will distance me from people” have been attributed to Immanuel Kant. The similar words “blindness cuts us off from things, but deafness cuts us off from people” have been attributed to Helen Keller.
Results
Neither attribution seems to be correct. Both authors however, had insights into hearing versus seeing. From there, we can reflect upon hearing versus listening, and consider in what ways deaf persons may think (for example, speech-words, sign gestures, emotions, or facial expressions). Listening is a prerequisite to having a meaningful dialogue, in order to come to know truth.
Conclusion
Having an open and reflective dialogue is arguably the foundation for shared decision-making, aimed at helping patients and clinicians decide what course of action will maximize their good, in their clinical situation.
期刊介绍:
This review aims to compare approaches to medical ethics and bioethics in two forms, Anglo-Saxon (Ethics, Medicine and Public Health) and French (Ethique, Médecine et Politiques Publiques). Thus, in their native languages, the authors will present research on the legitimacy of the practice and appreciation of the consequences of acts towards patients as compared to the limits acceptable by the community, as illustrated by the democratic debate.
