The chaotic space caused by information explosion in present times has made the process and purpose of reading to be always questioned. Technological advancement has made reading appear as a mere mockery at the very outset. But the world still prioritizes knowledge that is acquired through observation, valuation and interpretation. At the time of Big Data, there still persists a sense of agency to define a given information as episteme. The present essay emphasizes on looking at reading as a modern phenomenon by presupposing the epistemological presence at the centre of any rational pursuit. Based on the Kantian precepts on enlightenment, the paper attempts to understand this presence of knowledge by delving into the major disciplines of modern philosophy that help in observing, valuing and interpreting the act of reading in present times. More than laying terms for defining the text within the modern space, the study essentializes reading in a virtually driven algorithmic world.

迈向阅读认识论：用现代术语定义阅读过程

当今时代信息爆炸造成的空间混乱，使得阅读的过程和目的一直受到质疑。技术的进步让阅读一开始就只是一种嘲弄。但世界仍然优先考虑通过观察、评估和解释获得的知识。在大数据时代，仍然存在将给定信息定义为认识论的代理意识。本文强调将阅读视为一种现代现象，假设任何理性追求的中心存在认识论。基于康德关于启蒙的戒律，本文试图通过深入研究现代哲学的主要学科来理解这种知识的存在，这些学科有助于观察、评价和解释当今的阅读行为。
