书籍简介

在这个对现代自我身份来源的广泛调查中，查尔斯·泰勒证明了这些资源是多么丰富和宝贵。现代人对主观性的转向，以及随之而来的对客观理性秩序的拒绝，在许多人看来，最温和的是导致了单纯的主观主义，最糟糕的是导致了纯粹的虚无主义。许多批评家认为，现代秩序没有道德支柱，并被证明对所有可能促进人类福祉的东西具有腐蚀性。泰勒反对这种观点。他认为，如果理解得当，我们的现代自我概念提供了一个框架，足以弥补对实质性理性概念的放弃。

《自我的根源》的主要见解是，现代的主体性，在其所有的认识论、审美和政治影响中，其根源在于人类善的观念。在首先论证了当代哲学家忽视了自我和善的联系之后，作者通过描述其起源来定义现代身份。他为发掘和描绘我们的道德来源所做的努力导致了对现代传统中大多数人物和运动的新的解释。泰勒表明，现代人向内转并不是灾难性的，实际上是我们长期努力定义和达到善的结果。在这一定义的核心，他发现了他所谓的对普通生活的肯定，这一价值即使没有完全取代旧的理性概念，也决定性地取代了与基于出生和财富的等级制度的联系。泰勒讲述了一场革命的故事，这场革命的支持者包括奥古斯丁、蒙田、路德和其他许多人，他的目标之一是确保我们不会忽视他们的目标，不会危及已经取得的一切。《自我的根源》为现代秩序提供了一个决定性的辩护，并对其批评者进行了尖锐的反驳。

In this extensive inquiry into the sources of modern selfhood, Charles Taylor demonstrates just how rich and precious those resources are. The modern turn to subjectivity, with its attendant rejection of an objective order of reason, has led-it seems to many-to mere subjectivism at the mildest and to sheer nihilism at the worst. Many critics believe that the modern order has no moral backbone and has proved corrosive to all that might foster human good. Taylor rejects this view. He argues that, properly understood, our modern notion of the self provides a framework that more than compensates for the abandonment of substantive notions of rationality.

The major insight of Sources of the Self is that modern subjectivity, in all its epistemological, aesthetic, and political ramifications, has its roots in ideas of human good. After first arguing that contemporary philosophers have ignored how self and good connect, the author defines the modern identity by describing its genesis. His effort to uncover and map our moral sources leads to novel interpretations of most of the figures and movements in the modern tradition. Taylor shows that the modern turn inward is not disastrous but is in fact the result of our long efforts to define and reach the good. At the heart of this definition he finds what he calls the affirmation of ordinary life, a value which has decisively if not completely replaced an older conception of reason as connected to a hierarchy based on birth and wealth. In telling the story of a revolution whose proponents have been Augustine, Montaigne, Luther, and a host of others, Taylor's goal is in part to make sure we do not lose sight of their goal and endanger all that has been achieved. Sources of the Self provides a decisive defense of the modern order and a sharp rebuff to its critics.
