可否為哲學家下一個公認定義呢？

可以 可以

唔可以!

'philo' means 'love' 'sophy' means 'wisdom' 'philosopher' can be explained as 'everyone who loves wisdom'

'philo' means 'love' 'sophy' means 'wisdom' 'philosopher' can be explained as 'everyone who loves wisdom'

To: 傑 Are you a philosopher?

Re: Plato The def. you gave is too loose: By common sense an idiot who loves wisdom is not qualified for the name of philosopher.

哲學家可以有數種層面的定義。

Dear Stranger, Could you tell me what is 'love' and what is 'wisdom'? Thanks!

Some definitions Encyclopedia Britannica: Philosophy - from Greek, by way of Latin, philosophia, “love of wisdom”), the critical examination of the grounds for fundamental beliefs and an analysis of the basic concepts employed in the expression of such beliefs. Philosophical inquiry is a central element in the intellectual history of many historical civilizations. Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary: Philosophy - the use of reason in understanding such things as the nature of reality and existence, the use and limits of knowledge and the principles that govern and influence moral judgment. Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary: Philosopher - someone who studies or writes about the meaning of life

不可 //可否為哲學家下一個公認定義呢？// 下了定義後，大部分人都接受，才為之「公認」的。如果「公認」早已存在，那麼造定義就不是「我下」的了。

更正 造->這

哲學家是李先生或李先生欣賞的思想家(如 Socrates,Wittgenstein).

哲學家 凡是以思考人生意義為工作的人或學者都可以是「哲學家」，但哲學家亦可分為以下幾類： 一、自封的「哲學家」 二、一般人承認的「哲學家」 三、「一般人承認的哲學家」所承認的「哲學家」 當中以第三種人最具資格被稱為「哲學家」。

Re: Plato Dear 密斯特Plato, 哦，原來你是不懂得Love和Wisdom的意思才俾出一個咁寬鬆嘅Def嘅。 hoho ^^ 說笑已矣。其實我估大家喺上"Philo101" 嘅第一堂嘅時候訴聽過"The Love to Wisdom" 嘅lee個講法架勒，而唔記得邊個亦講過（大意）「原則上每個人都係一個哲學家」；大概就是你的Quote的意思。不過將lee個Quote引伸為哲學(家)的定義，就真係過於寬鬆。 我認同Benny的回應，要為「哲學家」下一個嚴格的定義幾不可能。只要看看123所問的「思想家、哲學家和宗教家三者有何分別」便可知其難。除了123提過的耶、釋 (爺、媳? ^^) 二人外，Adam Smith 同李加圖算不算哲學家?(如果馬克思都算，點解𠈄地唔算？)咁Hayek呢？ Comte同Max Weber又點？keekee,仲有梁燕X、葉X強加埋細佬鼻渧蟲以及諸經院神學家又如何? I love wisdom and like to be wise too! Haha ^0^ 其實我覺得「哲學家」的定義問題都唔係好重要je(亞傑少，我只係話「唔係好重要」咋！^^)，不過亞密絲楚鳳歌嘅留言就幾有意思。 P.S. 多謝你的回應，終於有人理吓我嘞。 hohoho ^o^
