史賓諾沙授課大綱
國立中正大學哲學系教學大綱(學士班)
九十九學年度第一學期
課程名稱(中文) 史賓諾莎
課程名稱(英文) Spinoza
授 課 教 師 侯維之 修 別 □必修 □必選 專選
課 碼 1252928 學分數 2
教 學 目 標 本課程係延續九十八學年度經典教學課程:「笛卡爾(Descartes)」與「洛克(Locke)」。將教授Spinoza的Ethics。
奠基在對史賓諾沙就「上帝與心靈」的理論主軸上,期望能提供學生一個理解理性主義的窗口。
授 課 綱 要
Spinoza係理性主義第二位主要哲學家,影響他的所有哲學家中,最重要的就是Descartes。由於Ethics是一本以幾何學方式寫作的極細緻哲學作品,本課程僅擬專注於第一與第二部分:Part I On God(論上帝)與Part II On the Nature and Origin of the Mind(論心靈的本質與起源)。其理由有二:第一,哲學史經典的教授必須輔以大量的補充說明,有益於學生對哲學文獻有初步瞭解,貪多不會有所助益;第二,九十八學年度的「笛卡爾」課程,專注於Descartes的Meditations on First Philosophy,其中以懷疑論、人類心靈認知結構、與上帝存在三大議題為核心,而Spinoza對後二者議題(即本課程擬教學的Part I & Part II)有許多分析,對Descartes的觀點做出攻擊與修正,而且其對後二議題的立場,正足以解釋為何對Spinoza而言,懷疑論根本不成為問題。

洛克與語言
弗列格是分析哲學之父,但洛克對語言的想法架構了一個理解分析學派在語言哲學上簡單清楚的背景。我們可以說弗列格語言哲學的開端在反對洛克的中心思想。洛克將他對語言的想法呈現在 An Essay concerning Human Understanding :
Man, though have great variety of thoughts, and such, from which others, as well as himself, might receive profit and delight; yet they are all within his breast, invisible, and hidden from ohters, nor can of themselves be made appear. The comfort and advantage of society not being to be had without communication of thoughts, it was necessary, that man should find out some external sensible signs, whereby those invisible ideas, which his thoughts are made up of, might be made known to others. For this purpose, nothing was so fit, either for plenty or quickness, as those articulate sounds, which with so much ease and variety he found himself able to make. Thus we may conceive how words, which were by nature so well adapted to that purpose, come to be made use of by men, as the signs of their ideas; not by any natural connexion, that there is between particular articulate sounds and certain ideas, for then there would be but one language amongst all men; but by a voluntary imposition, whereby such a word is made arbitrarily the mark of such an idea. The use then of words, is to be sensible marks of ideas; and the ideas they stand for, are their proper and immediate signification.
以下條列式呈現洛克對語言的概念架構:
(一) 語言的功能定義了語言的本質。
(二) 溝通是語言的(社會性)功能。
(三) 語言溝通在傳達個人的想法(thought)。洛克認為沒有溝通社會的安定繁榮便不在,人便回到霍布斯的自然狀態。
(四) 文字的代表語言所要傳達的想法的組成份子的意義(signify, mean)。
(五) 想法由觀念概念(idea)所構成。
(六) 人的觀念無法被他人所感知到。
(七) 文字與文字所代表的意義之間的連結關係是任意的。
(八) 文字本身本質上並不具有意義

Meditation III homework
作業繳交期限為一月十二號24:00之前,請大家將題目列印寫上答案,請交至文學院四樓助教胡映群信箱。
Exercise 3.1
Arrange the following concepts in the order in which Descartes presents them in the first half of Meditation III
a. He has discovered no evidence providing that his sensory ideas are accurate copies of objects.
b. He must prove that God exists and that God is no deciever before he can discover other certitudes.
c. He categorizes his thoughts into violitions, emotions, and judgments.
d. A clear and distinct grasp of something is required to know a thing for certain.
e. The light of nature is different from natural impluse.
f. His ideas are either innate, acquired, or produced by him.
Exercise 3.2
1. Paraphrase the first argument in paragraph 8 ("For the moment, the central question..."). Because Therefore,
2. Paraphrase the first argument in paragraph 9 ("I will now see whether these reasons..."). Because Therefore,
3. Paraphrase the first argument in paragraph 8 ("Next, while my sensory ideas may not..."). Because Therefore,
4. Paraphrase the first argument in paragraph 8 ("Finally, even if some of my ideas..."). Because Therefore,
5. Now look at paragraphs 8, 9, 10, and 11. Paragraph(s) refute(s) arguments in paragraph(s)
Exercise 3.3
Underline the conclusion, the "therefore" statement, in each of the following arguments.
1. I think I exist. I can be absolutely certain I exist. I must exist in order to think I exist.
2. I cannot tell or certain that external objects exist. I cannot tell if my ideas are accurate copies of external objects, then I cannot know for certain that external objects exist.
3. God could be deceiving me. God is all-powerful.
4. It is not possible that anything I've grasped clearly and distinctly could be false. In the future, I can use it as a general rule that anything I grasp clearly and distinctly is true.
5. I need to prove that God is no deciever. God might be deceiving me. If God is deceiving me, then I can't know anything for certain.
6. I should be careful when I make judgments about my ideas being copies of external objects. I can make errors when I judge that my ideas are copies of external objects.
EXercise 3.4
Omitting argument 1, arrange the arguments in 3.3 in the order in which they occur in Meditation III, and give the paragraph number of each argument.
