Is there really such a thing as third-person perspective? Is it possible to define first-person perspective without making reference to the third-person? The tension between first- and third-person perspectives is so complex and profound that the “need to reconcile” them has been called “the single most important unsolved problem in science,” as well as religion (Ramachandran & Blakeslee 1998: 229). Its purview extends closer to our lived concerns, too: the tension between first- and third-person accounts lies at the heart of how we experience being consciously embodied in the world. We have our vivid but narrow, on-the-ground vision of the world through our sensory faculties, and we can abstract that point of view in order to understand the world on a systemic level. And yet it seems impossible to truly hold both visions at once. The best we can do, it seems, is toggle between these imperfect modes. Such vacillations are rarely comfortable, though there is perhaps a lot to learn from the discomfort.
真的存在所谓的第三人称视角吗?在不参照第三人称的情况下,有可能界定第一人称视角吗?第一人称视角和第三人称视角之间的张力是如此复杂且深刻,以至于“调和”它们的必要性被称作是科学领域以及宗教领域“最重要的未解决问题”(拉马钱德兰与布莱克斯利,1998:229)。它的范畴也与我们的生活关切更为贴近:第一人称叙述和第三人称叙述之间的张力处于我们如何体验自身有意识地存在于世间这一问题的核心。我们通过自身的感官能力对世界有着生动但狭隘、基于自身所处情境的认知,而且我们可以对这一观点进行抽象化处理,以便从系统层面理解世界。然而,似乎不可能同时真正兼顾这两种认知视角。似乎我们所能做的最好的事情就是在这两种并不完美的模式之间来回切换。这样的摇摆不定很少会让人感觉舒适,不过或许能从这种不适感中学到很多东西。
Narrative theory, with its enduring and sophisticated lexicon of narrative voice, seems particularly well suited to investigate the innumerable ways in which first- and third-person perspectives clash, merge, alternate or otherwise interact in fields as various as literary studies, linguistics, philosophy, ethics, cognitive psychology, psychoanalysis, political science, religious studies and physics.
叙事理论凭借其持久且精妙的叙事声音词汇表,似乎特别适合用来探究第一人称视角和第三人称视角在诸如文学研究、语言学、哲学、伦理学、认知心理学、精神分析学、政治学、宗教学以及物理学等诸多领域中相互冲突、融合、交替或以其他方式相互作用的无数种方式。
I invite papers that reflect on the first-third-person problem from any and all perspectives and disciplines. Papers that focus on a single object of analysis that problematizes the tension between first- and third- person are especially welcome.
我诚邀从任何及所有视角和学科出发对第一人称与第三人称问题进行反思的论文。尤其欢迎聚焦于某一分析对象从而凸显第一人称与第三人称之间张力问题的论文。
