Zhang Shenfu's Logical Empiricism

Zhang Shenfu(1893-1986)was one of the first propagandists of the Vienna school's logical empirical philosophy in China.He was one of the first people who came into contact with materialist dialectics and participated in the founding of the Communist Party of China.At the same time,he also admired Russell's ideologies and was hailed as China's first person to study Russell.In the education of traditional Chinese Confucian culture,with the change of times,he became interested in Russell's logic to analysis and translated Wittgenstein's "Theory of Names",under the influence of Russell and members of the Vienna School,vigorously promote logical empiricism.Under the dual roles of materialist dialectics and logic analysis,he proposed his ideas of "great objectivity" and "scientific methods".In the 1930 s,he put forward his own comprehensive view of culture in the debate of Chinese standard culture,and rejected the overall westernization and cultural restoration.This article is to supplement other aspects of Zhang Shenfu's existing traditional philosophical thinking.He believes that the task of philosophy is to eliminate misunderstandings caused by ambiguity in language.The philosophy of the logical empiricism school is the orthodox idea of scientific philosophy and has a scientific method for dealing with philosophical task.At the same time,philosophy and logic are inseparable.The daily philosophical proposition can only achieve the idea of "divide" through logical analysis,and the mission question is more specific.In addition,it should be integrated with and complement each other with the dialectical materialist idea of "total" in order to achieve simultaneous integration and division of the entire system.Use the combination of philosophical thoughts to develop China's backward culture,in order to construct a comprehensive cultural view to deal with the social form at that time.This article is divided into five chapters for discussion:The first chapter of this article mainly writes the reasons for the selected topics,and gives a general summary of the research content.The second chapter writes Zhang Shenfu's biography and the source of his philosophical thoughts,as well as the cultural communication proposed by philosophical thoughts.The third chapter is the theme chapter of this article.It analyzes and expounds Zhang Shenfu's logic empiricism.First,it introduces the application of Zhang Shenfu's logic in philosophy and the interpretation of philosophical propositions by logic analysis.The second section mainly introduces the application of logic analysis in philosophy,and the third section mainly introduces the special nature of logic analysis.Among the theories of the logic empiricism school,formal logic and rejection of metaphysics are one of the biggest characteristics.The fourth section discusses the scientific method proposed by Zhang Shenfu on the basis of the combination of logical empiricism and materialist dialectics,the rational application and realism in the New Enlightenment.The fourth chapter mainly discusses the influence and significance of Zhang Shenfu's logical empiricism,how his philosophical thoughts were integrated,how they influenced the debate on the cultural construction at that time,and how they laid the foundation for his brother Zhang Dainian's philosophy.The fifth chapter summarizes Zhang Shenfu's logical empiricism.This article believes that Zhang Shenfu 's logical empiricism has been clarified to a certain extent.His thoughts have pointed out a new direction of development for the philosophical development at that time and guided the synthesis of culture.Without his logical empiricism,Zhang Shenfu cannot be fully understood,which an indispensable part of his academic career is.
