The founders of dialectic

2005-05-07 | 学問
  Hegel has proposed three philosophers of Zeno, Heraclitus, and Plato as the founders of dialectic in Lectures on the history of philosophy. First, I want to try to evaluate these three philosophers in this paper. Next, I will set up philosophers whom I consider to be the founders of dialectic.

  Zeno is dialectic contradiction itself. Hegel considered the movement to be existing contradiction itself by counterattack against the logic of Zeno. Zeno is a starting point of Hegel dialectic. He corresponds to dialectic contradiction.

  Heraclitus corresponds to negative reason, Plato positive reason. In other words, I think that three philosophers whom Hegel put up correspond to internal structure of three aspects of the logical. This is my evaluation.

  By the way, according to Heo Man-Won(許萬元), Zeno corresponds to inherencism, Heraclitus historicism, and Plato totalism. My evaluation derives from his philosophy.

  In dialectic of Hegel, dialectic of existence and dialectic of recognition coexist. My trial is to distinguish dialectic of recognition from Hegel dialectic and then to reconstitute three aspects of the logical on the basis of the law of contradiction. In other words, my venture is to remove contradiction from the Hegel dialectic and to submit the dialectic which sets dialogue in the kernel.

  In my opinion, three philosophers of Zeno, Heraclitus, and Plato are not the founders of dialectic. Zeno and Heraclitus leave. It is Aristotle who comes instead. Aristotle is a symbol of the law of contradiction. Plato stays, but he is a symbol of not positive reason but dialogue.

  These two philosophers are the founders of dialectic. I want to propose two philosophers of Plato and Aristotle against three philosophers of the founders of Hegel dialectic. Plato is a symbol of dialogue. In contrast, Aristotle is a symbol of the law of contradiction. These two philosophers exist in the rational kernel of Hegel dialectic.

Notes
1) This is a translation of "弁証法の創始者".
2) Dialectic of exsistence is a term of Iwasaki Takeo(岩崎武雄). It means a way of thinking as follows: Contradictions exist in existence itself, therefore we must abandon the law of contradiction to grasp existence. For example, a movement is caused by the contradiction that a thing is in this place and it is not at the same time, therefore we must throw away the law of contradiction when we think about movements.
3) Heo Man-Won(許萬元) is a scholar who has been trying to discover the rational kernel of Hegel dialectic.
