人文科学的科学性与人文性

在如何理解人文科学的性质及其定位的问题上,须克服并超越狭隘的实证主义和狭隘的人文主义的科学观。既要理解人文科学的科学性,又要理解人文科学的人文性;既要从科学经验出发去理解人文科学,理解人文科学与自然科学的统一性,又要从人文经验出发去理解人文科学,理解人文科学与艺术等人文文化的深刻关联;既要看到人文科学是科学文化的重要环节,又要看到人文科学也是人文文化的重要环节。人文科学是沟通科学与人文两种文化的桥梁和纽带。

On Scientific and Human Properties of Human Sciences

As concerns how to understand the problem of the properties and orientation of human sciences, the narrow science outlooks of positivism and humanism should be overcome and transcended. We need (1) understand both the scientific properties and human properties of human sciences; (2)understand human sciences and the unity between human sciences and natural science from the experience of science, and understand human sciences and the deep connections between human sciences and human culture from the experience of humanities as well; and (3) look upon human sciences as both the important links of scientific culture and the important links of human culture. Human sciences are bridges and ties between two cultures.
