体验现实主义:理论争议和挑战

自从体验现实主义作为认知语言学的直接哲学基础提出以来，其争议不断并面临诸多理论挑战是不争的事实。文章主要在探讨体验现实主义的缘起及其哲学立场的基础上，通过考察学界针对体验现实主义所作的理论批评、认知语言学者作出的相应理论回应以及体验现实主义的理论争议焦点，指出体验现实主义在理论建构层面所遭遇的理论问题和挑战。虽然体验现实主义目前并未成为主流的哲学理论，其与西方分析哲学的角力还有待进一步检验。但毋庸置疑体验现实主义是一个有着可信实证证据基础的理论假说，也是一个有效的意义哲学理论，有效解决了理智和意义的体验性本原问题。 

Embodied Realism:Theoretical Controversies and Challenges

Since its introduction to the domain of cognitive linguistics as the direct philosophical basis of cognitive linguistics, embodied realism has been a topic full of controversies and is therefore faced with challenges. Based on the discussion of both its arising and philosophical stand, as well as the review of the theoretical criticisms concerning about embodied realism, the corresponding responses to those criticisms and the controversies evoked on embodied realism, this paper indicates out the theoretical challenges faced with embodied realism at the level of theory construction. Although there is a long way to go before western analytical philosophy will be taken over by embodied realism as the mainstream philosophical theory, embodied realism is undoubtedly a theory based on sound theoretical presupposition and reliable empirical evidence. Also, embodied realism is a valid philosophical theory of meaning, which offers a sound explanation of the embodied origin of reason and meaning.
