论「无」的西方哲学家：约翰内斯•司各特•艾利基纳（800–877 CE）
摘要：
艾利基纳（c. 800–877 CE），生于爱尔兰，早期中世纪基督教新柏拉图主义哲学家。他是西方哲学史中，对「无」（nihil, non esse）的涵义讨论得最为详尽而主张最为激进的一人。艾利基纳提出不少创见，包括：着名的「自然的四种区分」（西方古代及中古时期的宗教及哲学权威，并无确切可与之比拟的思想）；把上帝理解为从黑暗走向光明之运动中的自身创造；「神圣的自身无知」的观念；创造世界为神圣的自我彰显；以及他对人类的纯粹灵性本质的论述。他最为激进的主张，出现于其着作《论自然之区分》：上帝可称为「非存在」或者「无」。本讲首先检视，艾利基纳在《论自然之区分》中关于存在和非存在的「五种模态」的论述，这个论述首先在书中第一部出现，之后在第三部中再触及。然后我会评论当前学界对《论自然之区分》的来源及其原创性的研究。有论者认为，最直接影响艾利基纳的拉丁文文献，是奥古斯丁、维多理诺和Fredigusius的作品；其实，希腊基督教神父诸如尼撒的贵格利、亚略巴古的丢尼修、忏悔者马克西穆斯，对艾利基纳的思想，尤其他视上帝为「非存在」或「无」的思想，影响亦非常深远。我会审视相关文献，评价艾利基纳《论自然之区分》裏的创见，同时以佛教「空」的观念互为参照。

The Phenomenological Philosophy of Edith Stein
摘要：
In this lecture I will introduce the phenomenological philosophy of Edith Stein (1891-1942), who was perhaps the most important female student of Edmund Husserl. Besides editing Husserl’s own texts (especially Ideas II), she was an original phenomenological thinker in her own right with striking accounts of embodiment, feelings and emotions (influenced by Scheler), empathy, the nature of the person and the meaning of spiritual life. She was a convert to Christianity and eventually became a Carmelite nun. As a Jew, she was martyred by the German National Socialists in Auschwitz in 1942. During her life, she was an activist who campaigned for women’s rights in the workplace and especially for women’s higher education. Stein is known philosophically primarily for her doctoral thesis, Zum Problem der Einfühlung /On the Problem of Empathy (1917; Stein Gesamtausgabe vol. 3), and for her contribution as research assistant (1916-1918) to Edmund Husserl, including editing his Ideas II (published posthumously in 1952 as Husserliana II). But she also published elaborate metaphysical texts, notably Potency and Act (1931) and Finite and Eternal Being (1935). Stein was in vigorous philosophical dialogue, as a respected equal, with leading philosophers of her day, especially Husserl, Scheler, Heidegger, Hedwig Conrad Martius, Roman Ingarden, Jacques Maritain, among others. Her work contains original approaches to empathy, embodiment, the phenomenology of emotional life, the unique nature of the person, the structure of social and collective intentionality, the nature of the state. In her later work, she developed an original philosophy of being and essence (including a defense of ‘individual essences’) that united the resources of phenomenology and Thomist metaphysics.
