心智哲学与认知语言学创新

认知科学经过三四十年的发展，现正进入了一个急剧变革和不断重组的新阶段，其中一个趋势是对认知的研究进行更为抽象的哲学概括，建立心智哲学。20世纪的第一哲学是语言哲学，21世纪的第一哲学则是心智哲学。心智哲学不再将语言活动看做哲学直接面对的研究对象，而是把语言活动看做心智活动的反映，心智活动才是心智哲学研究的对象。认知语言学是认知科学的支撑学科之一，它具有如下的潜能:既能为认知以外的语言理论做出贡献，又能为语言以外的认知理论做出贡献。在坚持认知语言学首先是语言学的前提下，紧跟认知科学理论范式的急剧变革和不断重组，有意识地自觉地使认知语言学部分地承担起为语言以外的认知理论和心智研究做出贡献，这是认知语言学研究可能的一种趋势，并可能是当前认知语言学的理论创新的内在增长点。 

The Philosophy of Mind and the Innovation of Cognitive Linguistics

Cognitive science has experienced a period of development of 30 years or more,and now it faces a stage of great rapid changes and re-organization.One of its progressive paths is to develop through a more general philosophical abstraction into the philosophy of mind,which becomes the first philosophy in the 21 century while the first philosophy in the 20 century was that of language.The philosophy of mind does not take as its direct object of study the language activity,which now turns into only the reflection of mental activities in the scope of its study;it takes mental activities as its direct object of study.Cognitive linguidtics is one of its supporting branches of cognitive science,which has the potential to make a contribution to a theory of language that goes beyond cognition,as well as to a theory of cognition that goes beyond language.On the understanding that it is first and foremost a science of language,cognitive linguistics should,following the great changes and re-organization of the paradigms of cognitive science,consciously take the responsibility of making a contribution to a theory of cognition that goes beyond language.This might be a possible trend of the new development of cognitive linguistics,as well as one of its growing point of the innovation of its theory.
