Abstract:
Taking my title from "Lingering in the Woods," one of Umberto Eco's Six Walks in the Fictional Woods, I present a study of Stanley Cavell's style of writing. While a dominant Anglo-American style of philosophical writing seems to be motivated principally by a desire for argumentation, a Cavellian, lingering style aims at thorough expression and description of the human experience. Traces of this style can be found also in Ludwig Wittgenstein's writing. After reopening the debate that arose from some responses to The Claim of Reason, I conclude with a close reading of Cavell's "Excursus on Wittgenstein's Vision of Language."

挥之不去:维特根斯坦、卡维尔和风格问题
摘要:
我的标题取自 Umberto Eco虚构的森林中的六步之行之一“林中徘徊” ,我介绍了斯坦利·卡维尔 (Stanley Cavell) 的写作风格研究。虽然占主导地位的英美哲学写作风格似乎主要是出于对论证的渴望,但卡维利式的、挥之不去的风格旨在彻底表达和描述人类经验。这种风格的痕迹也可以在路德维希维特根斯坦的作品中找到。在重新开始因对《理性主张》的一些回应而引起的辩论之后,我以仔细阅读卡维尔的“关于维特根斯坦的语言视野的附记”作为结束。
