《物性论》既是古罗马共和时期最重要的哲学著作,也是现存第一部古典拉丁语长诗,卢克莱修既是最重要的拉丁语哲人,也堪称古罗马的一位大诗人。由于卢克莱修试图通过《物性论》这部长篇教谕诗将“晦涩”的自然之理变成明澈甘甜的诗,卢克莱修的《物性论》不仅通俗地解说了常人难以理解的唯物原子论,也开启了启蒙教育的文学样式。通过绎读《物性论》第三卷中的“阿克绒深渊”这段诗性启蒙的典范段落,本文尝试探讨卢克莱修在西方思想史上的重要地位。
Abstract
Besides being the most important philosophical work during the era of the Republic of Rome, De rerum natura [On the Nature of Things] is also the earliest extant long poem in Latin. While its author Lucretius is not only accredited as the most important philosopher in Latin, he is also known as a major poet in ancient Rome. In De rerum natura, Lucretius illustrates obscure philosophical reasonings in lucid and euphonic poetical lines. Thus, it not only renders the sophiticated atomic materialism in a more approachable way, but also initiates a literary form for enlightenment. Based on a close reading of Book 3 of De rerum natura, this paper undertakes to illustrate the importance of Lucretius in the western intellectual history.
