现代性问题是我们时代的最为重要的问题。查尔斯.泰勒通过其对思想史的深刻剖析,提出了现代性理解上的分殊,即:“文化的”与“非文化”的现代性,并指出了“非文化”的现代性观点在西方文化中占主流地位。现代性取得了巨大成就的同时,也带了诸多的隐忧。克服这些隐忧,为现代性寻找出路的关键就在于恢复对现代性的文化理解,为原子化的自我及其自由找到处境。 The issue of modernity is the most important issue of our time. Through its profound analysis of the history of thoughts, Charles Taylor put forward the distinctions in the understanding of modernity: the “cultural” and the “noncultural” modernity, and the “noncultural” The modernity view prevails in Western culture. While great achievements have been made in modernity, it has brought many hidden worries. The key to overcoming these worries and finding a way out for the modernity lies in restoring the cultural understanding of modernity and finding its place for atomized self and its freedom.
