耶鲁大学开放课程—哲学:死亡04OpenYalecourse—Philosophy:

我们一直在讨论这样一个问题

We've been talking about the question,

用什么论证可以证明灵魂的存在

What arguments might be offered for the existence of a soul? 我们首先会想到的一类

And the family of arguments

则是那种

that we're considering initially are arguments

被称作推理的论证

that get known as inference

或叫做最佳解释推理

or inferences to the best explanation.

其思路是

The thought is that

存在一些有关我们自身的亟待解释的事物

there's something about us that needs explaining.

但单从物理的角度我们无法对其进行解释

We can't explain it in terms of, in purely physical terms.

所以我们需要借助他法

And so we need to appeal to,

我们需要假定灵魂存在

we need to posit, the existence of, a soul.

我们待会儿再回到这个论题上

Now, I'll come back to that sort of argument in just a minute, 现在我们暂且先把它放在一边

but let me bracket that for a moment

开始学习柏拉图

and say something about Plato.

从下周开始

Starting next week,

我们要学习柏拉图的对话斐多篇

we're going to be looking at Plato's dialogue, the Phaedo.

尽管在讲到斐多篇时

And so although I'll be saying a great deal

我会向你们详尽介绍其中的内容

about the Phaedo once we turn to it,

但现在我还是想先花一两分钟的时间

I want to just take a minute or two

做一个简短的引言

and say a couple of introductory remarks.

我不知道你们当中有多少人

I don't know how many of you

之前未曾读过柏拉图的作品

have not read any Plato before,

但是还未拜读过柏拉图的同学们

but for those of you who haven't,

我敢肯定你们会喜欢上他的

I actually think you're in for a treat.

柏拉图是历史上最伟大的哲学家之一

Plato is not only one of the greatest philosophers in history, 人人影视

https://www.sodocs.net/doc/5614950435.html,

并且他使用对话体形式来阐述其观点

he wrote his philosophy in the form of dialogues.

即以戏剧为表现方式

That is to say, plays,

其间各种人物悠闲地或坐或站集聚一块儿

in which various characters sit around or stand around

探讨各种哲学观点

and argue about philosophical positions.

我们要学习的这篇对话斐多篇

The particular dialogue that we're going to reading,the Phaedo, 就将场景设定在苏格拉底临死前的一幕

is set at the death scene of Socrates.

想必你们都知道

As I'm sure you know,

苏格拉底被人指控

Socrates was put on trial,

以教唆雅典青年的罪名被判处死刑

condemned to death for corrupting the youth of Athens--

也许罪名还包括

and perhaps, among other things,

和青年们讨论哲学

for arguing philosophy with them.

狱卒把毒芹汁端给他

And he's given hemlock, poison,

他一饮而尽然后生命就此终结

and he drinks it and he dies.

这是一个历史性的事件

Now, this is a historical event.

苏格拉底有一大群朋友和学生

Socrates had a circle of friends and disciples

和他讨论哲学

that he would argue philosophy with.

而柏拉图就是他的学生之一

One of his disciples was Plato.

柏拉图随后形成自己的思想

Plato then grew up

并写下了许多哲学著作

and wrote philosophical works.

柏拉图本人通常并不在自己的对话篇里出现

Plato does not typically appear in his own dialogues.

即使出现了也仅仅是个次要的角色

Or, if he does, he's only there as a minor character.

实际上如果我没记错的话

In fact, if I recall correctly,

柏拉图曾提到

Plato's mentioned as not

苏格拉底死时自己并不在场

being there on the day that Socrates dies.

那么我们如何辨别

So, how do we know,

在戏剧中

if we've got this play,

谁代表柏拉图本人的立场呢

whose position is Plato's position?

答案是苏格拉底

And the answer--the short answer--is, Socrates,

即剧中苏格拉底的角色诠释了

the character Socrates in the play, represents Plato,

戏剧作者自己的哲学观

the author of the play's, philosophical views.

如果这是在古代哲学的课堂上

Now, in fact, if this were a class in ancient philosophy,

我们可能要将讨论的内容延伸得更广一点

we'd have to complicate that picture,

因为柏拉图后期的哲学观点

because it's fairly clear that by late in Plato's career Plato has philosophical views 同他老师苏格拉底的观点迥然不同

that are very much unlike the views of his teacher, Socrates.

而且柏拉图一直没有在对话篇中现身

And yet Plato continues to not appear in the dialogue.

而苏格拉底仍继续保持着主角的身份

Socrates continues to be sort of the hero.

所以学者们一直在争论

And so scholars debate which of the views put forward

在对话篇里的苏格拉底提出的观点中

by Socrates in which ones of the dialogues represent views

哪些属于历史上那个真实的苏格拉底的

that belong to the actual historical figure Socrates,

哪些是戏剧中的苏格拉底的

and which of the views put forward by the character Socrates

哪些虽在对话篇里说是苏格拉底的观点

in which of the dialogues represent views

但却并不符合真实的苏格拉底的原意

that are actually not held by the historical Socrates,

即实际上是柏拉图

but were instead held by the historical Plato

假借苏格拉底之口来表明自己的观点

and were merely put in the mouth of the character Socrates.

学者们是如此鉴别的柏拉图早期对话作品

Scholars distinguish between the early Platonic dialogues,

即在所谓的苏格拉底的对话中

the so-called Socratic dialogues,

主角苏格拉底的观点

where the thought is, those are the views of Socrates,

与历史上那个真实的苏格拉底的思想吻合

the actual historical figure.

而就柏拉图的晚期对话作品而言

And then there's the late dialogues,

尽管苏格拉底也频频出场

where even though Socrates appears,

大多数学者认为那些观点很可能

most scholars believe those are probably not the views

并不是真实的苏格拉底所持有的

that the historical Socrates actually believed.

对中期对话作品的鉴别就比较困难

You have middle dialogues where you have to worry about

因为你无法明确观点与人物的对应关系

whose views are whose.

但是我们不用担心

But we're not going to worry.

这不是在古代哲学课课堂上

This is not a class in ancient philosophy.

所以出于这门课程的目的

So for our purposes,

我们无需深究

we don't have to ask ourselves

苏格拉底在对话中的某个观点

when Socrates in the dialogue says something,

到底是属于那个真实的受死之人苏格拉底的

is this a view that the dead man Socrates actually would have held 还是属于已故之人柏拉图

or is this simply a view that the dead man Plato

通过作品中苏格拉底这个角色所表述的

put in the mouth of the character Socrates?

就我们这门课程的目的而言这都无关紧要

For our purposes, it won't really matter.

我会把苏格拉底提出的

I'll take every view that

所有观点都当做是柏拉图的

Socrates puts forward as a view of Plato's,

尽管我会随意地

though I'll typically sort of run back

将两者交替着说

and forth sort of in a careless fashion.

我会说

I'll say,

"柏拉图认为"或者"苏格拉底认为"

"Plato holds" Or "Socrates argues,"

因为就这门课的目的而言两种说法是等效的

because for our purposes it's all the same.

但是还有一个地方

But there's one other

我要提醒你们

complication that you've got to be warned about,

那就是由于这些是对话作品

which is this. Because these are dialogues

且它们全都采用了哲学论证的形式

and they take the form of philosophical arguments, 即人们先提出观点然后

people put forward views and then,

在讨论的过程中

over the course of the discussion,

改变自己的关于事物想法

change their minds about things.

随即收回之前的话

And they take them back.

也许类似的情形

And maybe something similar

在苏格拉底身上也发生过

is going on when Socrates says something.

因为毕竟柏拉图也没有说

Because, after all, this isn't Plato saying,

这就是我明确相信的观点

"Here's what I believe explicitly."

他只是在写一个关于哲学的戏剧

He's just writing a dramatic play about philosophy. 所以有时候我们会这样想

And so sometimes we'll find ourselves thinking,

看这里有一个论证

"You know, there's an argument here

是由苏格拉底提出的

that Socrates is putting forward.

它也许不是一个很好的论证

But maybe it's not a very good argument."

但至少

And it will, at least,

它值得我们偶尔停下来琢磨一下

be worth pausing periodically to ask ourselves,

也许柏拉图也意识到这不是一个好论证

maybe Plato realized it wasn't a very good argument.

通过了解那些由苏格拉底提出

We can often better understand the dialogues by seeing Socrates

但他自己也觉得不充分的观点

as putting forward certain positions

我们可以更好地理解这些对话作品

that he does not think are altogether adequate.

他会调整修改那些观点

And he modifies them or revises them

或者以引入新观点

or introduces new positions

来解决先前他遇到的难题

to deal with some of the difficulties that he was setting himself to be open to earlier. 我之前说过不要过多拘泥于细枝末节

As I say, don't worry about any of those details now,

但在阅读对话时应该谨记细节很重要

but it's a point to keep in mind as you read the dialogues.

以上就是我对斐多篇做的简介

So that's all I really wanted to say by way of introduction.

考虑到下周的课程

You should start reading the Phaedo

你们应该提前开始阅读斐多篇了

for next week.

我们会在下周开始讨论斐多篇

We'll be talking about the Phaedo starting some time next week

外加下下周的一部分时间

and we'll continue the

或者全部时间继续

discussion of the Phaedo for at least a bit of,

讨论斐多篇

maybe all of, the week after that.

对于柏拉图这块我会做特别对待

In the case of Plato, I'm going to make an exception.

通常我会提到我们的阅读材料

Normally, I will mention our readings,

但是我不会花过多的时间

but I won't spend a lot of time

来讨论细节问题

actually discussing them in detail.

这也就是为什么你们不得不

That's why you have to

把课后阅读当做上课的补充

think of the readings as complementing the lectures

或者把听课当做课后阅读的补充

or think of the lectures as complementing the readings.

这次不是向你们发些名著导读那么简单了

I'm not just giving the Cliff Notes, as it were, of the readings. 对于斐多篇

Nonetheless, in the case of the Phaedo,

我还会花更多的时间来说明诸如

I am going to spend more time actually saying,

我认为首要论证是这样的

"Here's what I think the first main argument is.

让我们从前提和结论着手

Let's try to reconstruct it in terms of

重新构建这个论证

its premises and its conclusions.

这是我的一些反驳观点

Here are some objections I raise.

接下来是柏拉图提出的另一个论证

Here is then the next argument that Plato offers.

我们试着研究一下前提条件

Let's try to get that up in premises."

即便如此我也不会花时间大声朗读

Even there, I won't be spending time reading out loud

斐多篇的各大长篇

long passages from the Phaedo.

但在某种意义上

But, in some sense,

相对于其他阅读材料我会对斐多篇作出

I'll be giving a closer commentary of the Phaedo

更为细致的解说

than I'll do for the other readings.

为了下周的课程你们应该开始阅读了

So, still, what you should do is start reading it for next week. 斐多篇的主题

The topic of the Phaedo,

如前所说被设定在苏格拉底受死当天

as I say, is set on Socrates' last day.

在对话的结尾处

At the end of the dialogue,

他饮下毒芹汁走向死亡

he drinks the hemlock and he dies.

也许一点也不足为奇的是

And perhaps unsurprisingly,

直到生命的最后一刻他都在和朋友们

what he does with his friends up until that moment is,

探讨灵魂的不朽性

he argues about the immortality of the soul.

最令人惊叹的是苏格拉底并不苦恼

Quite strikingly, Socrates is not upset.

他根本不担心自己即将死去

He's not worried about the fact that he's going to die.

反而以某种方式迎接死神的降临

He actually welcomes this in a certain way,

因为他坚信灵魂是不朽的

because he believes his soul is immortal.

所以支持和反对

And so, in addition to philosophical arguments for and against 灵魂的存在与不朽的论证

the existence and immortality of the soul,

以一个感人至深的死亡场景告终

we end the dialogue with a quite moving death scene,

这简直就是西方文明史上

one of the great death scenes,

最伟大的死亡场景之一

if we could call it that,

如果我们可以这样说的话

of western civilization.

总之如前所说下周的安排就是这样

Anyway, as I say, that's all for next week.

现在让我们再回到这个问题上

So let's return now to the question,

我们怎样论证灵魂存在

"How might we argue for the existence of the soul?"

起初上节课上

Initially, last time,

我们探讨了一类或者说是

we considered a set of or

一小类论证这些论证的基本观点是

a subset of arguments that basically said,

我们肯定不仅仅是些物质实体

"Look, there's got to be more to us than just material objects. 人不是机器

People can't just be machines,

因为机器不能推理

because machines can't reason.

机器不能思考

Machines can't think."

而我也说过

And I said,

这看上去并不是一个令人信服的论证

"That doesn't seem to be a compelling argument."

毕竟会下国际象棋的电脑似乎是会推理的

After all, chess-playing computers, it seems, can reason.

它们对我的战术了然于胸

They have beliefs about what I'm likely to do next.

它们拥有极力实现自身目标的欲望

They have desires about the goals that they're trying to achieve. 它们推算怎样才能最彻底地打败我

They reason about how best to defeat me.

需要指出的

And it's worth pointing out that--

上次课我并没有提到这一点

a point that I didn't make last time--

需要指出的是电脑

it's worth pointing out that, what the computers,

至少最棒的国际象棋电脑并没有做什么

at least the best chess-playing computers don't do.

实际上没有电脑真正会做这些事情

Indeed, no computer actually does this.

你可能认为一台电脑

You might think that what a computer,

或一台下棋电脑所做的工作就是这样

what a chess-playing computer does is just this:

计算出所有可能的下法

it calculates every possible branch,

以及与之对应的各种可能的棋局

every possible game from here on out.

然后它再斟酌一下

And then it sort of works backwards.

恩在这些情形下我能胜出

"Oh, these are the ones where I'll win."

所以只有当它能够预见到

And so it only makes the move

自己接下来20步得以制胜的棋路时

where it can sort of look ahead 20 moves,

它才会继续往下走

right, and see which branches have the computer winning.

但国际象棋的程序并不是这样工作的

That is not the way chess-playing programs work.

原因很简单

For the simple reason that

棋局的潜在变数相当之大

the number of possible chess games is so huge,

以至于计算机根本无法将其完全计算出来

that computers can't calculate it.

因为这需要它们数以千年的工作量

They'd be busy for thousands of years.

我们可能会这么做

We can do that sort of:

当你和你七岁大的侄子或侄女

When you play tic-tac-toe

下三子棋的时候

with your seven-year old nephew or niece,

你就会先预测然后想

you just look ahead and work backwards.

要是我这样下

"Well, if I do that,

他就会那样下

he'll do that

如果他走了那一步那他就赢了

and he'll do that and then he wins,

所以我不会走这一步对吗

so I won't do that," right?

但是在下国际象棋时候我们不会那么做

But we can't do that with chess.

因为实在有太多盘棋了

There's just too many games.

那么下棋程序

So how do chess-playing programs,

特别是最好的下棋程序

and particularly the best chess-playing programs,

是如何工作的呢

how do they work? Well,

它们的下棋方式同你们如出一辙

they play chess the same way you do.

它们会想哪些棋子的威力更大

They have various ideas about which pieces are more powerful

需要重点庇护

and so they're more important to protect.

它们会想到

They've got various ideas

采用哪种策略获胜几率更高

about which strategies tend to be successful.

以及这些策略会带来哪些风险

What sorts of dangers come along with them?

如果你是一名严谨的棋手

If you're a serious chess player,

你可能还会研究国际象棋史上最伟大的棋局

you might study some of the great games of chess history. 的确当人们编写游戏程序时

And indeed, when they program these things,

会在这些程序中

the programmers will

一局接一局地

feed in game after game after game

输入历史上那些最伟大的棋局

of the great chess games in history.

然后用这些知识武装好自己之后

And then armed with all of that,

你就能做到最好

you sort of do your best.

当你下输了一盘时

And when you lose a game,

你也许会在心里记下

you kind of make a mental note to yourself,

这次实在太糟糕了

"That really screwed me up.

下次再换个别的什么试试

Let me try something different next time."

你会尽量避免使用那些着数

And you avoid those sorts of moves.

下棋程序也是这样工作的

That's how chess-playing programs work as well.

跳转一下话题我先来对此做一番评论

Jumping ahead, let me make a remark about this,

因为这和我们几分钟后

because this is going to be relevant for something

将要讨论的东西有关

I'll get to in a couple of minutes.

这意味着什么呢

What this means--what this,

其含义就是

the implication--is that

如果你正在玩一个不错的国际象棋程序

if you're playing a great chess-playing program,

要想推测出程序下一步的着数

it's not as though the way to tell

而对游戏程序进行全方位的研究

what it's going to do is

似乎并不是个有效的方法

to study its program and think it through.

这些程序的设计者

The people who design these programs,

很可能本身就棋艺高超

presumably fairly decent chess players themselves,

他们

the people who design these programs,

在玩这个程序游戏时

when they're playing the programs

并不会在心里想着

they're not thinking to themselves,

既然这个程序是我编制的

"Let's see. I programmed this computer so

所以如果我把皇后移到这里

that when I move a queen forward to this space,

它就会出相

it should come out with a bishop."

这种想法根本无用

That's hopeless.

因为程序会不断依据过去

Because the program is constantly revising its strategies,

有效无效经验修改其策略

in light of what's worked and what hasn't worked in the past.

当程序员或其他任何人玩这个程序时

When the programmers play these programs or indeed when anybody, 比如一个优秀的棋手在玩这些程序时

a good chess player, plays these programs,

战胜它们的最好办法就是问问自己

the best way to try to beat them is simply ask yourself,

现在怎么走才最为明智

"What's the best move to make right now?"

推算计算机接下来最可能的动向才是制胜关键

The odds are the computer's going to make the best possible move. 将计算机视为一名象棋健将

Treat the computer as though it were just a great chess player.

事实上最棒的象棋程序已经是老辣的棋手

And indeed, the best programs are great chess players.

尽管曾一度出现过

There was a period of time in which,

强劲的象棋程序

although there were decent, chess-playing programs

无法战胜顶级人类棋手的情形

couldn't beat the best chess-playing humans.

但是那种局面在几年前

That ended some years ago when

以象棋程序击败象棋大师而告终

the best programs began to beat grand masters.

而现在

And now it's in fact the case

最优秀的象棋程序可以称得上是所向披靡

that the best programs can beat pretty much anybody.

当前的国际象棋世界冠军

In the current world champion of chess,

弗拉基米尔?克拉姆尼克

I think Vladimir Kramnik,

就在今年12月被一个国际象棋程序击败

was defeated in December by a chess-playing program.

克拉姆尼克当时只是把它当作一个强劲的对手

So Kramnik's simply treating this as an awesome opponent. 其所作所为堪称最佳行棋之道

And that's the best way to deal with these things.

好了我们还是把这些思考暂且先搁在一边

All right. So, bracket some of those thoughts for a moment. 稍后再对其继续讨论

We'll come back to them a little bit later

当我们开始探讨这样一个问题

when we start talking about the question,

机器有创造能力吗

"Could machines be creative?"

我先亮出我自己的观点

Tipping my hand,

显而易见

it seems pretty clear that

这个问题正好能够

that seems like the right

对国际象棋程序做出解释

thing to say about these chess-playing programs.

于是我们便产生了这样一个疑问

So we had the question,

机器能推理吗

"Could machines, could machines reason?"

虽然还未曾出现

And although we don't have machines

具有推理能力的机器

that can reason about a lot of subjects yet,

这一点相当明确

it seems pretty clear.

但仿佛机器

It seems like the natural thing to suggest, machines

在某些领域具有推理能力是再自然不过了

can reason in at least some areas.

所以人不是物理对象

And so it doesn't seem plausible

这一观点似乎并不能站稳脚跟

to suggest that we people must not be physical,

因为毕竟

merely physical, because after all,

我们人能推理而机器不能

we can reason and no machine can reason.

不机器可以推理

No, machines could reason.

但这引发了灵魂辩护者的

But this prompts a different

一个迥然的进程

move on the part of the defender of souls.

也许论证不应该是

Perhaps the argument shouldn't be,

我们必须相信灵魂

"We have to believe in souls

因为所有的物理对象都不能推理

because no mere physical object could reason."

而应该是

Perhaps the argument should be,

我们不得不相信灵魂

"We have to believe in souls

因为所有物理对象所有的机器都没有感觉

because no mere physical object, no machine could feel." 我们人拥有情感

You know, we have emotions.

会彼此相爱会心生恐惧

We love. We're afraid.

会拥有烦恼也会欢欣愉悦

We're worried. We'll get elated.

还会沮丧消沉

We get depressed.

所以或许这个论证应该这样表达

So perhaps the argument should go

对思考

"Yeah, yeah, thinking,

机器可以思考

that's the sort of thing a machine can do.

我们称之为思维机器

You know, we call them thinking machines.

但是感觉能力却是任何机器都不具备的

But feeling, that's the sort of thing no machine could do. 没有任何纯粹的物理对象

No purely physical object

可以感觉到什么可以有情感

could feel anything, could have emotions.

因为我们拥有感觉事物的能力

And so, since we clearly do feel things,

所以我们一定比物理对象高级

there must be more to us than a physical object."

现在我想我们有理由认为

Now, I think it is plausible to suggest

与象棋计算机的例子不同

that unlike the case of chess-playing computers,

我们现在还没有能感觉事物的机器

we don't yet have machines that feel things.

但问题不是我们有没有这样的机器

But the question isn't, "Do we?"

而是

The question is,

能否存在这样的机器它可以感觉到某物

"Could there be a machine that could feel something,

可以有某种情感

could have an emotion of some sort?"

我们来谈一点科幻作品想一想

So let's go a little science fictiony and think about

在科幻电影中

some of the robots that

出现过的一些机器人

have been shown in science fiction movies,

在科幻电影

some of the computer programs

以及科幻小说等其他科幻作品中

that have been shown in science fiction movies,

出现过的一些计算机程序

science fiction novels, or what have you.

我小时候

When I was a kid

有一部叫"迷失太空"的电视剧

there was a television show called Lost in Space.

我已经记不起

I'm afraid I've forgotten

剧中机器人的名字了

the name of the robot that was on that show.

但在这档电视节目中

But as it was a TV show and so sure enough,

每一集都会戏剧性地发生一个新的危机

every single episode, some new dramatic danger would take place. 于是机器人就会开始全速前进大声疾呼

And the robot would start whizzing and binging and shout out, "危险罗宾逊指挥官"

"Danger, Commander Robinson!"

"危险威尔?罗宾逊"

"Danger, Will Robinson!"

就是这样 "危险威尔?罗宾逊"

That was it. "Danger, Will Robinson!"

机器人好像一直都很担忧

It seemed as though the robot was worried.

再举个更近一点的例子

More recent example.

你们可能有人读过道格拉斯?亚当斯的书

A number of you have probably read some of Douglas Adams' books. 如银河系漫游指南以及其续集

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and the sequels to that.

书中有一个叫马文的机器人

There's a robot in those books, Marvin,

我想可以用"消极"一词来概括他的特点

who's --depressed, I think is the simple word about it.

他很聪明

He sort of--He is very smart.

对于宇宙万物都有着自己的思考

He's thought about the universe,

他认为人生毫无意义所以行事消极

thinks life is pointless and he acts depressed.

他把自己的想法告诉另一个机器人

He talks to another robot,

后者的情绪也变得低迷

depresses the other robot.

最后自杀了

The other robot commits suicide.

故事就讲到这里

All right.

"消极"用在机器人身上似乎再自然不过

Seems natural to ascribe depression to Marvin, the robot.

因为他的言行举止就是如此

That's how he behaves.

再来举个我最喜欢的例子

Or, my favorite example,

2001太空漫游(电影名)

the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey.

我先申明

Now, I've got to tell you,

没有看过这部电影的同学们

for those of you who have not seen this movie,

我要剧透了好吧

I'm about to spoil it. All right?

所以请你们捂住耳朵

So you cover your ears.

太空漫游

In 2001:A Space Odyssey,

一些迹象表明

we get some kind of indication

另一个星球上有生命存在

that there's life on another planet.

一切都很神秘所以我们

It's all very mysterious and we

派遣一艘飞船去调查星球上的印记

send off a spaceship to investigate the markings,

以及那些从其他星球传来的无线电信号

the radio signals from the other place.

这是一项非常重要的任务

This is a very important mission

因此一个被命名为哈尔的计算机程序

and so there is a computer program named Hal

被安排协助飞船的运行

that helps run the ship

减轻飞船上

and takes a lot of the

人类宇航员的负担

burdens off of the part of the human astronauts who are on the ship. 哈尔有一个目标

Hal's got the goal--

从理性和欲望等角度来说

in terms of reasoning and desires and so forth and so on--

哈尔的目标就是确保该任务能成功完成

Hal's got the goal of making sure the mission is successful. 但哈尔看似有凭有据地认为

But Hal thinks to himself fairly plausibly,

人类只会威胁到任务的执行

humans really screw things up.

这是一项至关重要的任务

This is a very important mission.

除掉人类以确保任务的顺利执行

Let's kill the humans to make sure they don't screw things up. 其中的一个宇航员

One of the astronauts,

发现了它的阴谋

discovering the plot,

试图阻止哈尔

attempts to stop Hal.

而他唯一

And proceeds to do the only

能使让哈尔不伤害到自己的举措

thing he can do to defend himself against Hal,

就是关闭该程序基本上也就是杀死

which is shut down the program, basically killing--

如果我们可以那样表达的话杀死哈尔

if we can talk that way--killing Hal.

与此同时一切都在进行中

Meanwhile, as all this is going on,

哈尔和那个叫戴夫的人类宇航员交谈

Hal and Dave, the human astronaut, are talking to each other. 哈尔最终意识到将要发生什么事情了

Hal realizes what's going on.

它试图阻止戴夫这一点完全可以理解

Hal tries to stop Dave, understandably enough.

当戴夫开始关闭它的电路时哈尔说

And Hal says, as Dave begins to shut down Hal's circuits,

我害怕我害怕戴夫

"I'm afraid. I'm afraid, Dave."

他害怕什么

What's he afraid of?

他害怕死亡

He's afraid of dying.

赋予哈尔恐惧感这似乎也是自然而然

It seems perfectly natural to ascribe fear to Hal.

哈尔准确地表现出你所期望他

Hal is behaving in exactly the way you would expect him to behave, 或称为它理应表现的行为方式

or it to behave,

如果它确实感到恐惧的话

if it felt fear.

它有理由恐惧

It's got reason to be afraid.

它表现得恰如其分

It's behaving appropriately.

它告诉我们它很害怕

It's telling us that it's afraid.

于是自然而然我们就会说哈尔感到害怕

It seems natural to say Hal's afraid.

现在你可以继续补充这方面的例子

Now, you could continue to sort of fill in examples like this.

正如我所说的确

As I say, of course,

这些都只是科幻作品而已

they're all science fiction,

但我们仍然可以从中有所领悟

but the fact that we can grasp--

我们并不会直接走掉说

and it's not as though we go running away saying,

哦不这实在是太不可思议了对吗

"Oh no! This was outrageous," Right?

计算机会说我害怕

"It makes no sense to

这简直说不通

think a computer could have said, I'm afraid.

它会有试图杀死要将程序关闭的人等其他举动

"It makes no sense to think that it could try to kill the people 这些完全说不通

who are trying to shut it down and so forth."

以上的想法在我看来是一种偏见

That seems to me to be prejudice,

正如我上次所说

as I said last time.

这边人们可以自然而然地说

The natural inclination here is to say,

这些计算机程序这些机器人能感受情感

"These computer programs, these robots are feeling emotion."

人人影视

https://www.sodocs.net/doc/5614950435.html,

但那边却没有理由相信

But there's no particular reason to think

电路之外有其他什么东西在运转

there's anything going on there than the circuits.

它们只是些物理对象

They're just physical objects,

只是些机器上的程序罢了

programs on machines.

如果这是正确的如果这种说法正确

If that's right, if that's the right thing to say,

那么我们不得不说

then what we have to say is,

我们不需要诉诸灵魂来

"We don't need to appeal to souls in order to

解释情感和感觉

explain emotions and feelings.

物理对象可以有

Physical objects could have,

纯粹的物理对象可以有

mere physical objects could have,

情感和感觉

emotions and feelings.

所以我们没有理由假定灵魂存在

So we have no reason to posit the existence of a soul."

现在我认为二元论者对这一答复的

Now, I think the best response on the part of the dualist to 最好回应就是区分感受的两方面

this reply is to distinguish two aspects of feelings,

情绪的两个方面

two aspects of emotions.

比方说感觉恐惧的行为方面

There's the behavioral aspect of feeling fear, let's say.

行为方面是

The behavioral aspect is

当你意识到环境中的某种事物

when you're aware in the environment of something

对你构成危险会伤害或者摧毁你

that poses a danger to you, that will harm you or destroy you, 或在这个计算机程序的例子中关掉你

or in the case of a computer program, turn you off,

于是你采取各种

then you take various kinds of behaviors

反击行动以解除危险

in opposition to that to try to disarm the danger,

死亡诗社英文影评

Life is there for us to enjoy After watching the movie Dead Poets Society, my eyes were full of tears. What could not be removed from my heart is that these young men finally learned the way to look at things from different ways from Mr. Keating. Seize the day, when you notice this point, it is never too late to start to do something. In Welton School, four pillars were set for the students to obey: tradition, hour, discipline, excellence. But what the school leaders performed left them an image as hypocrisy, and the school like a place of hell. Not until the day John Keating came, did they find some new meaning of life. I still remember on Keating's first class, one boy copied every sketch Keating drew on the blackboard, and then was told all that was nonsense. Keating told them to rip off the very page about theory on poetry, which may restrain their free thought about poetry. Then standing on the desk, he showed the young men they could look at things from different angles. "Carpe Diem, seize the day, boys, make your life extraordinary.” In order to make them realize the true meaning of life, Keating disguised as one of the precursors on the picture, whispering to them. When I heard this sentence, I began to think about my own life. Being a senior student faced with graduation, we are pushed to believe that every second is a inseparable part of life to become a step near to success. That is to say, for almost every one of us, to seize the day means to be successful, it is same with me. Not until a piece of news on the Internet shocked me some other day—Kaifu Lee found himself suffering from cancer. In my eyes, he is always positive, ready to give job hunters tips for searching jobs. What's more, I took for granted that such a person could live a happy and healthy life. The truth is that I was wrong. Hence, I have been reconsidering about life. To pursue success on career is one kind of passion, but life is not only made up of fame and profit, there are

电影死亡诗社观后感影评650字

电影死亡诗社观后感影评650字 美国的片子《死亡诗社》,它的故事发生在1959年的威尔顿预备学院,那是一个扼杀个性的年代,也许我们今天仍处在这个时代中.这里给大家整理了一些有关死亡诗社的观后感,希望对大家有所帮助. 死亡诗社观后感1 看完电影《死亡诗社》觉得非常真实,前一秒孩子们喊这学校的口号“传统,荣誉,纪律,优秀”,后一分钟孩子们高喊自己的原创口号。孩子原始的天性细腻的在影片中表现,青春期蠢蠢的萌动真实的展现。影片中孩子的活泼,家长的专制,校长的古板,新教师的个性都强烈冲击我们的心灵。我相信大部分的孩子都会喜欢这个非传统的老师,吹着口哨进课堂,将课堂搬到教室外的连廊,鼓励学生撕掉课本的前言…… 我们能看见他真诚善良,鼓励孩子克服困难,帮助孩子超越自己。所以孩子都喜欢上他的课,因为自由,活跃,快乐,可以乘着想象的翅膀高飞。这是他们也是整所学校从未发生过的事,以学院为首的传统教育思想和以英文老师为首的现代教育的冲突和碰撞不可避免的发生了。这两种教育有点像我们的应试教育与素质教育。如何做好素质教育,认真执行二期课改,教师还需要勇气、智慧和实干精神。真正做到以人为本,让孩子活出生命的活力和意义。

基丁老师有很多值得我们学习的地方,但鉴于国情和孩子的不同特点,我觉得尼尔的死在我们的身边可以避免。基丁老师教了怎样选择活着意义,但未教授如何热爱我们的生命,对生命负责。尼尔为反抗父母的意愿以自杀为代价,让我看后很震撼。我在想如果是我班级的孩子有像尼尔这么强烈的兴趣欲望,我们教师应该做好沟通工作,和孩子的心理辅导。不可能愿望现实不了就放弃自己的生命,这是对自己生命的极其不负责任。当然现在也有个别孩子心灵脆弱,为不弹琴绞断手筋,成绩不好跳楼等等,所以现行“两纲”教育中特别强调的生命教育。这也是我们教师不可忽略的方面,急需加强教育,希望悲剧不要在我们身边发生。 影片《死亡诗社》中基丁老师要离开学校时,班里最内向的学生,第一个站到了课桌上,陆续有其他同学也站了上去。他们是在用自己的行动向基丁老师表达自已他的敬意和感激。看到这儿,我落泪了……老师的成功是什么?是孩子考出好成绩吗?这是一个太浅显的回答,我认为老师的成功应该是,作为老师你的思想、人品影响了孩子,指引孩子,而孩子正向着你期望的方向逐渐迈近,那种收获和满足是无法用言语表达的。从某种意义上讲,这才是为人师者最大的成功。“亲其师,信其道”,让我们先从关心、爱护身边的孩子做起,相信定会有不俗的收获。 死亡诗社观后感2

耶鲁公开课笔记4

美国耶鲁大学网络公开课《金融市场》视频笔记4 耶鲁大学网络公开课《金融市场》由罗伯特.J.希勒(Robert J. Shiller)教授主讲。共26课(集),每课时长均为一个多小时,配有字幕。 [第4课] 多元化投资组合和辅助性的金融机构(时长1小时07分) 本课内容是多元化投资组合(Portfolio Diversification),辅助性的金融机构(Supporting Financial Institutions),尤其是共同基金(Mutual Funds)。 希勒介绍,这也是他长期研究的一类课题。 希勒相信,世界需要更多的多元化投资组合。这也许会让人们觉得有点怪,但希勒认为这是绝对正确的。 埃米特.汤普森也研究过这类起因的相同课题,即,为了帮助世界上的穷人,可以通过多元化投资组合来改进。 希勒说他完全就是这样认为的。 (世界上)有大量的人类困难,都可以通过多元化(分散)投资来解决。 本课要讲的,不仅只适用于安逸的富人,而对每一个人都适用。 实际上这还是关于风险的问题。 当任何人遇到惨境时,那都是某些随机遇到的结果。 当人们在生活中陷入实际麻烦时,那是由于一系列糟糕事件将人们推到不幸的境地。 金融风险管理常常就是防止发生这种不幸情况的部分(措施)。 本节课将从一些数学问题讲起,是对第二节课的继续。 希勒在第二节课讲过关于风险分摊的原理,今天接着拓展到某些方面,即,将略微集中到投资组合问题。 先讲怎样构建一个投资组合,其中有哪些数学问题,由此引入到资产定价模型,这个模型是金融中许多思考的基石。 关于这一部分内容,在耶鲁的其他课程会讲得详细些,尤其像约翰.吉纳科普洛斯(John Geanakoplos)讲的经济类251号课程(Econ 251)。 从这节课可以获得基本要点。下面从基本概念开始讲。 希勒说他只用最简单的术语来讲述。 1

《死亡诗社》英文影评及观后感

Dead Poets Society Who are you What are you doing What do you want Many of us are losing ourselves because of the reality, frustration, the pressure or the authority. In fact, we are just like a chess, for others have arranged all for you. We spend a lot of time in those things we do not like. However, we are immature. We choose silence or choose to force ourselves to like it. We ourselves never dare to say "NO" loud, or never master our life in our hand. Perhaps, you will defend for yourself, "This is no other way to do "; Perhaps you will say, "Now that everything looks the same, can I be unique "; Perhaps you will say, "This is the reality, and no one can beat it"; perhaps, very likely, you will become one of them and establish the authority of parents to educate your children. You have become a loyal defender of authority. There is an old golden Chinese saying: No one can exist who resists me . However, all in all, cannot it change 《Dead Poets Society》tells me that nothing is impossible. At that time, nothing is more important than yielding. What you have to do is to obey discipline and authority. To Rebel means no good

耶鲁大学公开课《死亡》详细笔记

PHIL 176 Death Professor Shelly Kagan (第一课没什么实质内容,可以略过)教授在第一课列举了这门课将要讨论的一些问题:1.人能否幸免于死2.人是什么?“我”是什么?3.有没有来生?4.自杀一定是恶的吗?……然后他摆出了自己的观点:1.不存在灵魂2.永生并不是好事情3.对死亡的恐惧是很正常的4.自杀在特定情境下有可能是理性的,并且在道德上是正当的…… 他希望通过这门课:学生能够自己独立思考。他不是要灌输给学生这些观点,而是要引导学生运用自己的理性,无论是支持还是反对这些观点,都要有合理的根据,给出论证。 第二课 要回答“我能否幸免于死”“我死后我是否还存在”,就需要先回答:“我”是什么?或人是什么?什么叫“幸免于死”?什么叫“活着”?一个人过了一段时间仍然是这个人,这是怎么一回事?…… 反驳:有人认为这个问题是混淆概念造成的,根本毫无意义,因为1.如果“死亡”的意思是生命的结束的话,那么2.“是否来生”就相当于“生命结束之后是否还有生命”,这就好比“碗里的饭吃完后碗里还有饭吗”,那么3.“是否有来生”或“我能否幸免与死”的答案当然就是否定的(因为很明显这些提问自相矛盾),这能从问题里直接得到答案。△回应:1.如果,“死亡”指的是身体的死亡(即一系列的生理过程);那么,2.之前的问题将变成“我的身体死后我是否还存在”,这和“生命结束之后是否还有生命”不同,不能从提问中直接得到答案。YYets 3.所以,在这个意义上提问和回答“我能否幸免与死”是有意义的。 要回答“我能否幸免于死”(在上面的那个理解下),就需要先弄清楚:“我”是什么?“我”是什么东西组成的?或者人是什么?人由什么组成? 一般来说,有两种主流观点:一、二元论(Dualism)◎1.人是由身体和心灵(灵魂)两部分组合而成严格说来,人的本质是灵魂,它与某具肉身密切联系着;“我”就是指我的灵魂,尽管与我的身体紧密联系着。2.身体和心灵是完全不同的两种东西,身体是物质的,灵魂是非物质的(不是由原子、分子构成的)3.心灵指挥身体,“身体反作用于心灵”4.死亡就是指身体的死亡,灵魂离开肉体(?)二、物理主义(Physicalism)○1.人只有身体,尽管2.这个身体能够实现多种功能3.人就是一个物理对象,一个纯物质的存在4.谈论心灵,实际上就是谈论大脑(或大脑的功能),正如微笑就是特殊的肌肉运动5.死亡就是指身体丧失了正常功能 第三课 二元论与物理主义的分歧:是否存在灵魂? 证明事物存在的方法:1.通过五感获得的经验证据来证明但是,灵魂是非物质的(如果二元论正确的话),我们无法通过感官来感觉到灵魂。所以2.对于无法通过五感感觉到的事物,需要通过“最佳解释推理”来证明其存在:我们必须假设a 存在,才能解释现象P,而且能给出最佳解释。(例如:原子、X 射线)注意:这里要求的是可能的“最佳”解释,而非任一看似可行的解释。 所以,二元论者要论证灵魂存在,就必须:找到我们身上的某个现象或特性F,只有通过假设灵魂存在才能给出最佳解释(物理主义无法解释或者只能给出较差的解释)。 灵魂存在论证◎YYets 根据F 的不同,有不同种类的论证。第一类诉诸普通的事物(情感、理性之类);第二类诉

死亡诗社观后感(英文)

Be a real man Dead Poets Society There are certain films that can heavily shock your soul, then elicit your thinking, and finally change your attitude of life. No doubt Dead Poets Society is one of these infrequent films. It is a film about a teacher and his students. It is a film about perseverance and change. It is a film about love and cruelty. The film is set in the United States in 1959. It shows us a series of things which happened to Mr. Keating and the young boys in Wilton Preparatory School. Mr. John Keating is certainly the main character of this film. He is a respectable teacher with a high self-cultivation. He has an advanced conception which is different from traditional education. The other two main characters are Neil, a boy who is keen on performing, and Todd, a boy with a little shyness. From Todd, I see how a boy grows into a man. The film starts with the opening ceremony of Wilton Preparatory School. Todd, a shy boy, starts his school life with his roommate, Neil. On the first lesson, their teacher, Mr. Keating, just told them ‘Seize the day, make your life extraordinary’.He reads Whitman’s poet Oh Captain! My Captain. He taught the students to swim against the steam and to be themselves but not to perform. Students regard Mr. Keating as a different

耶鲁公开课笔记2

美国耶鲁大学网络公开课《金融市场》视频笔记2 耶鲁大学网络公开课《金融市场》由罗伯特.J.希勒(Robert J. Shiller)教授主讲。共26课(集),每课时长均为一个多小时,配有字幕。 [第2课] 风险管理中的普遍原理:风险汇聚和对冲(时长1小时09分) 本课主题是风险管理中的普遍原理----风险汇聚和对冲(Pooling and Hedging of Risk)。 希勒认为这是金融理论中最基本、最核心的概念。 本课先讲概率论(Probability Theory),再讲通过风险汇聚来分摊风险的概念。 概率论是极具智慧的构想,诞生于历史上的特定时期,并令人意想不到地获得广泛应用,金融是其应用领域之一。 对部分学生来说,本课相对所讲的其他课会显出更多的技术性,并且遗憾的是又安排在学期初。 对于学过概率和统计的学生而言,就不是新知识了。这是从数学角度的看法。 概率论是新知识,但不要太畏惧。课前有个学生告诉希勒,他的数学有些生疏了,是否还能选这门课?希勒说,如果你能听懂这堂课,那就不会有问题。 什么是概率?通过举例说明。 比如,今年股票市场会走高的概率是多少?例如认为概率是0.45,是因为对股市悲观,预测股市会走高的可能性是45%,而股市会走平或走低的可能性是55%。这就是概率。 听了这个例子,人们就会觉得这个概念是熟悉的,如果有人提到概率是0.55或0.45,也就知道他说的意思了。 话锋一转,希勒强调,概率并非总是以这种方式来表述的。 概率论成形于十七世纪,此前没有人提出过。撰写概率论历史的作者伊恩.哈金(Ian Hacking),查遍世界所有关于概率论的文献,没有发现在十七世纪之前有概率论的文献,也就是说,在十七世纪产生了一次智慧的飞跃,当时用概率词汇来表述非常时髦,引用概率进行表述的方式很快传遍世界。 但是,有意思的是,如此简单的概念此前从未使用过。下面希勒详细介绍哈金的成果。 哈金研究表明,概率词汇早已存在于英语中,莎士比亚就用过,但其所代表的意思是什么呢?哈金举了一个年轻小姐的例子,这位小姐描述她喜欢的男子,说道,“我太喜欢他了,我觉得他有很大‘可能’”(probable)。 1

耶鲁大学公开课

甭看名人励志演讲了,去看看耶鲁大学的公开课吧(中文字幕),能学到太多了,国内的大学真是误国误民啊。。。转来当日志收着来源:陈俐彤小C~的日志 最近一朋友和我讲,YALE大学把他们上课的内容录了下来,并发布在因特网上,供网络传播浏览。 一个全世界排名第二的大学,竟然把自己课程的内容完全录了下来,并在全世界传播,在大学产业化的中国,有些人会觉得不可思议,你没交学费,怎么可以把我的课程免费的给公众提供呢?可是人家并不是这样认为的,本着人不分贵贱,教育不分你我的原则,耶鲁大学做出了这个匪夷所思的举动,实在是非常钦佩。。。 好了,不说大话,这个公开课真的非常的好,我有义务分享给我的朋友们 首先你得会用电驴,具体怎么用百度去 ps:我分享的这个是有字幕的,而且这个字幕是非常考究的,所以出的非常慢,理解一下。。。 =========================================== 音乐学 聆听音乐Listening to Music(教授本人著述) 课程简介: 本课程培养在对西方音乐理解基础上对音乐的感悟。它会介绍各种类型的音乐是如何搭配,并教导如何聆听各种类型的音乐,从巴赫,莫扎特,格里高利咏叹调到蓝调 关于课程主讲人: Craig Wright在1966年于the Eastman School获得钢琴乐和音乐史双学位,在1972年于哈佛大学获得博士学位。 Craig Wright从1973年开始在耶鲁大学任教,目前是the Henry L. and Lucy G的音乐教授。 在耶鲁大学,Craig Wright的成就包括常年流行的入门课程“聆听音乐”和选择性研讨会“探索大自然的天才”。 每年夏天,他都会带领一些耶鲁大学的社团区法国,德国和意大利采风。

电影死亡诗社观后感范文精选6篇 死亡诗社观后感范文 下了班我迎着冷风顶着雨一路骑车到了家门口,又一头冲进了牛肉汤馆,在冷冷的路上就想没有比喝一碗牛肉汤加一个香脆的烧饼更美味的晚餐了。照例,打开手机电影,打发吃饭时间,顺便防止自己一个人处在人群中感到令人羞耻的焦虑。最近偏好励志题材,也许跟目前的心境有关,总想着从任何可能的地方找到一丝支撑的力量和慰藉。整个“励志”专辑推荐的影片基本都快刷完了,剩了一个,《死亡诗社》。这个片子之前几次都想点开但最终又换了其他的来看,原因是看到这个名字总让我感觉不舒服,打开播放了几分钟,就觉笼着幽幽的阴郁,周围很吵,我被辣椒呛了一口,耳朵嗡嗡响。 总之,对这个片子没有任何好感。 捱到中间部分,我松了小口气,一切被青春向上和激

情充满,猜测dead poetsociety并非是阴郁的主题,也许只是死亡诗人mr. keating 及对诗歌怀抱热情的同伴们于自己的社团一种不落俗套的称呼吧!就像他启发hopkins时一样。一群大长腿鲜肉们正处在建立自己三观及搭建梦想的时期,很幸运的给了他们一个如此迥异、浪漫、天马行空、怀抱激情的文学老师。他们撕掉像数学公式一样的前言,他们站在桌子上尝试看不同角度的世界,他们逃脱门禁高举灯火在山洞重组神秘的死亡诗社,他们在院子里找到自我独特的脚步,他们写并读了自己人生第一首诗,尽管简单拙劣但完全出自心底的诉求,他们寻找自我的意义,寻找真挚的爱情,寻找愿意倾其一生为之奋斗的梦想。他们无比愉悦,内心是跳动的,观影的人也是跳动的。 neil 的父亲是“你必须听我的,我是为你好”派的典型代表。他像一座山,不过可惜neil本不在他的怀抱里,而是高高的竖立在儿子的面前,他高大的阴影完全笼住了neil小小的身子成为不可逾越的屏障,甚至连征服的勇气都不敢有。尽管在neil自杀前曾有过那么一次反抗,梦想给的勇气,一瞬即逝。 我想neil的死足以让父亲稍微怀疑一次自己的强势并最终妥协,这也是更多的影片中常见的情节。而结局并非

(完整版)耶鲁公开课--博弈论笔记

耶鲁公开课一博弈论笔记 第一节、 名词解释 优势策略(Dominant strategy ):不论其他局中人采取什么策略,优势策略对一个局中人而言都是最好的策略。 即某些时候它胜于其他策略,且任何时候都不会比其他策略差。 注:1、"优势策略”的优势是指你的这个策略对你的其他策略占有优势,而不是无论对手采用什么策略,都占有优势的策略。 2、采用优势策略得到的最坏的结果不一定比采用另外一个策略得到的最佳的结果略胜一筹。 严格劣势策略(strictly dominated strategy):被全面的严格优势策略压住的那个策略, 也就是说不是严格优势策略以外的策略。 弱劣势策略:原来不是严格劣势策略,但是经过剔除严格劣势策略后,这个策略就成了严格 劣势策略。 例:囚徒困境 甲沉默{合作)甲认罪(背叛 乙沉默(合作)二人同服刑半年甲即时获释!乙眼刑F评 乙认罪(背扳)甲腮刑10年;乙即时获释二炯服刑2年 囚徒到底应该选择哪一项策略,才能将自己个人的刑期缩至最短?两名囚徒由于隔绝监禁,并不知道对方选择;而即使他们能交谈,还是未必能够尽信对方不会反口。就个人的理性选 择而言,检举背叛对方所得刑期,总比沉默要来得低。试设想困境中两名理性囚徒会如何作出选择:若对方沉默、背叛会让我获释,所以会选择背叛。 若对方背叛指控我,我也要指控对方才能得到较低的刑期,所以也是会选择背叛。 二人面对的情况一样,所以二人的理性思考都会得出相同的结论一一选择背叛。背叛是两种 策略之中的支配性策略。因此,这场博弈中唯一可能达到的纳什均衡,就是双方参与者都背叛对方,结果二人同样服刑2年。 例:协和谬误20 世纪60 年代,英法两国政府联合投资开发大型超音速客机,即协和飞机。该种飞机机身大、装饰豪华并且速度快,其开发可以说是一场豪赌,单是设计一个新引擎的成本就可能高达数亿元。难怪政府也会被牵涉进去,竭力要为本国企业提供更大的支持。 项目开展不久,英法两国政府发现:继续投资开发这样的机型,花费会急剧增加,但这样的设计定位能否适应市场还不知道;但是停止研制也是可怕的,因为以前的投资将付诸东流。随着研制工作的深入,他们更是无法做出停止研制工作的决定。协和飞机最终研制成功,但因飞机的缺陷(如耗油大、噪音大、污染严重等)以及运营成本太高,不适合市场竞争,英法政府为此蒙受很大的损失。
