摘要
长期以来,许多人都无视身体的认知功能和价值,只把认知归功于大脑,对认知能力的探索、研究、测试、训练和保养也是聚焦于大脑的结构和机制;没有认识到"我"、"自我"或"主体"等能指、主词或概念所指谓的"就是我的身体"。其实,正是人的整体性身体结构、以及由此形成的身体场、知觉场、实践场、身体的意向性、认知冲动、尝试性的探索行为、身体的感知能力、认知的超越功能、概念化和范畴化作用、发明创造活动、以及诸如此类的身体智能、身体思维等要素和属性,一起构成认知和才智的源泉。因此身体才是人类从事社会实践、获得知识、成就事业、创造历史、完善人性的根本。人们只有把人的本质性存在身体放在一切认知和社会实践的最高位置,才更加有利于推动人的智力和自身的全面发展。
The cognitive function and value of human body has long been ignored so that cognition has been attributed only to human brain. Therefore, the exploration, testing, training and preservation of cognitive capacity have all been confined to the structure and mechanism of brain; little attention has been paid to the fact that the concepts like ＂I＂, ＂ego＂, and ＂subject＂ all refer to ＂my body＂. However, our cognition and intelligence actually starts from our body as an organic whole and is embodied in various body fields, functions and activities, including： the perceptive field, the practice filed, the body intention, the cognitive impulse, the exploring behavior, the body apperception, the transcending function of cognition, the conceptualization and categorization functions, and the invention and creation activities. All such body functions and embodied cognitive activities constitute the source of our cognition and intelligence. On this view, it is human body that enables human beings to engage in different social practices, to acquire knowledge, to make career achievements, to create history, and to improve our human dimensions. Only when the proposition that what is human lies in the human body is given top priority in any cognitive and social practice can it be possible for human beings to enjoy an easier growth not only intelligently but also comprehensively.
