Narrative constructs in modern clinical case reporting

Modern clinical case reporting takes the form of problem-solution narratives that redescribe symptoms in terms of disease categories. Authored almost always by those who have played a part in the medical assessment of the patient, reports historicise the salient details of an individual's illness as a complex effect of identifiable antecedent causes. Candidate hypotheses linking illness to pathological mechanisms are suggested by the patient’s experience, and by data that emerge from clinical examination and investigation. Observational and interpretive statements from these considerations are fitted into a temporally inflected account of the patient’s medical condition, configured from the vantage point of hindsight. Drawing on established forms of deferred telling, readers are invited to follow a story that drip-feeds a mixture of contingent and non-incidental information into the account, which engenders and frustrates curiosity, creates expectations, and challenges powers of reasoning and pattern recognition. Whereas case reporting once favoured memoir, the sentimental tale and eccentric biography as the means by which its historical narrative was cast, the preferred genres of contemporary case reporting include detective fiction, and puzzle and riddle narratives, formats that conceptualise the medical consultation in narrow problem-solution terms.     

如何看待人工智能的发展

人工智能本质上是对人类智能的功能模拟。虽然在某些方面的表现比人类智能更优秀,但是由于其固有的复杂性和技术的局限性,所以充其量只不过是人类智能的延伸,最终在整体上是不能代替人类智能的。     

科学证据、类比方法和伦理论证——兼论严重脑损伤患者的他心问题

以类比论证来确认他心认识的可能性与途径的研究方法曾经受到许多哲学家的诟病。继人工语言哲学家的工作之后,日常语言哲学家将他心问题从一种单纯的认识论问题转化为日常生活中的沟通问题,从而使他心问题部分地得到解决。不过,陷入昏迷状态的脑损伤患者是否具有思想、情感以及其他心理属性等仍然是一个悬而未决问题。神经科学对大脑活动与意识状态之间的关联性研究推进了这一领域的进展。在此基础上,有研究者试图运用类比的方法,结合大脑活动与意识状态之间关联性的研究结果,论证他者具备意识能力和心理属性,进而探讨对待他者道德义务的有效性问题。神经科学的研究拓展了我们对于大脑和意识的认识,但是对他者负有道德义务并不必然要求他者具备意识能力,同时论证和论据存在内在缺陷。神经科学对他心问题的解答存在局限性。     

进化论视域中的道德——恩斯特·迈尔的道德进化思想研究

迈尔对道德的进化问题具有深刻的认识和精致的论证。他对生物利他现象与人类道德行为的关系做了辩证的思考,认为利他现象与道德行为既有密切的联系,又有本质的区别。他从生物进化与文化进化协同的视角研究了道德规范的形成与传递,认为道德规范是后天习得的,但也与遗传下来的倾向和能力有关。他还从进化人道主义立场出发,提出道德规范应该具有的适应性与灵活性。     

《简·爱》作品中的叙述方式所体现的宗教意识(英文)

《简爱》作品中始终以一种特殊的宗教意识贯穿其中,以此昭示或影响着主人公的命运。它在叙事中大量地使用宗教叙事手法,来展示小说内在所蕴含的与众不同的宗教意识——强调在人性和神性之间统一。     

加强高校道德教育之浅见

道德教育是我国高校德育的重要组成部分。青年大学生的道德素质状况如何,不仅直接决定着社会的形象和民族的精神面貌,还直接关系着建设有中国特色社会主义事业的前途。道德教育历来受到党和国家的高度重视。然而,近年来随着社会上“功利主义”、“利己主义”等思潮的滋生和蔓延,大学生们的良好道德观念受到很大冲击,于是,他们为道德而困惑和迷惘。由此作者认为,进一步加强对大学生的道德教育刻不容缓。     

Is biotechnology the new alchemy?

In this article I examine similarities between the science and ethics of biotechnology on the one hand, and those of alchemy on the other, and show that the understanding of nature and naturalness upon which many contemporary ethical responses to biotechnology are predicated is, in fact, significantly similar to the understanding of nature that was the foundation of the practice of alchemy. In doing so I demonstrate that the ethical issues and social responses that are currently arising from advances in the field of biotechnology are interestingly similar to those that arose in reaction to the practice and prevalence of alchemy from its inception in Europe in the mid-twelfth century until at least the early modern period. I argue that a proper conception of the ethical issues and a sensible interpretation of the power and the promise of the science of biotechnology are most likely if we understand such attitudes to nature, and to the ethical issues surrounding technological and scientific developments, in terms of an historical and cultural continuum. That is, we should regard biotechnology as merely the latest in a string of technological and scientific developments rather than, as is often alleged, as something entirely new, requiring its own special ethical response. Finally, I suggest that examining the parallels between the ethical issues generated by alchemy and by biotechnology show us that such issues are best situated and discussed within a framework of virtue ethics, as it allows us to think seriously about the relationship between art and nature and the proper role of humans in relation to their technology.     

被遮蔽的激流——论《创业史》的叙事张力

由于十七年文学与时代政治的紧密关系，所以常常被评论家视为“人与自我的失落”的文学。然而，十七年时期的文本往往在“表达了什么”与“如何表达”之间又形成了叙事的裂缝。从微观叙述形态层面上来探讨《创业史》，可以发现其叙事张力在文本内部的人物关系设置、矛盾冲突的展开方式、作家对角色的定位与读者接受等诸多方面都有所呈现。
