ZT:诗人治疗师/严力


诗歌常常用词组间的碰撞产生既有的文字定义所不能表达的感受,也就是说人类发明了的文字还不能完全表达内心的某些感受。这些碰撞也常常产生连创作者都为之惊异的效果。有些效果是不确定的确定,也就是说让读者产生因人而异的联想,确定的是联想,不确定的是因人而异。比如:“夜里的世界很静,可以听见雄鸽撕扯女人内裤的声音。”以鸽子所代表的和平的意向来阅读和以人性的批判来阅读,就各有所指,“雄鸽”和“女人”则是词组的碰撞。再比如:“我在人类的丛林里猎取了一头名叫孤独的野兽,我不相信它的皮因为孤独而不保暖。”其中“猎取”、“孤独”、“皮”、“保暖”,则是词组的碰撞。另外:“他坚定地认为,自己在享受两封来信之间的那段时间。” “在粉刺们借宿于她脸上的那段时间里,她多么想辞退这些乱倒垃圾的房客。”“当满城的雨伞都打开其哭泣的内心时,我感到政治学上的湿度。”诗歌在表达上的享受提升了做人的乐趣,它的批判性、准确性和幽默感是人体输出能量的最佳形式,对创作者来讲,积压在内心的东西运到体外去了。为什么我要从这个颇有医学的角度来讲呢?请看下面两个有关的报导。

“心理的问题能用哲学来治疗吗?全美心理学学会主席坎特在回答《纽约时报》采访时说:我从不相信哲学能处理心理健康那样复杂微妙的事情。但是全美实用哲学学会主席马里诺夫则说:许许多多的个人问题,不管是心理的,还是伦理的,都不一定非要到心理学或精神分析学领域去找解决的方法。这个学会正在制定一套标准,通过考核的哲学家就能获得哲学治疗师的正式营业执照。纽约州政府也在考虑立法把这一行列入合法职业。在欧洲,对哲学治疗能力感兴趣的人也越来越多。有一个女记者向《快报》周刊介绍说:如果我去心理医生或精神分析学家那里,不要说别人,就是我自己也会觉得自己是个病人。如果是跟哲学家对话那感觉就不同了,我是在完善自我,在追求生命的意义……哲学就是努力找回每个词的意思,去发现词里面到底有些什么。每个词都像活的一样。”

“医学院的学生在学习时经常承受沉重的压力,一旦他们无法找到宣泄的途径,往往酿成悲剧。了协助学生减压,加拿大一所大学的医学院聘请了诗人教导学生写诗,希望借此减轻他们的读书压力。受聘于达尔豪希大学的诗人唐尼说:我希望鼓励医学院的学生和院方职员,以写诗作为宣泄情绪的方法,唐尼认为投身护理行业的专业人士,每天在工作中都经历人类诸般的情绪变化,但苦无途径宣泄积压下来的情绪。唐尼以往做过医学界的社工,其后以疾病及治病等题材写下不少极具可读性的诗篇。”

我综合以上的两个报导以及自己的写诗历程,认为哲学治疗其实是写诗治疗的一部份,写诗包括了哲学思维,而且诗歌更具有文艺性,因此也不会太单调。一直有这么一种说法:诗人是社会的良心。也就是说要把看到的不平说出来。而现代社会发达的无孔不入的媒体,扛起了诗人的这一部份责任,它们及时地把许多信息立体地呈现在社会大众面前。所以诗人就更加转化为对自身的、内在的感受进行挖掘和表现。不过,诗人作为语言的先锋和文字的探索则一如既往地承受着其中的乐趣与责任。表达自我的语言艺术在诗人那里可以说是最彻底的了。我们假设每个人的内心也是一个社会,而让自己作为自己内心的媒体或良心,把内心的扭曲或者病痛感报导出来之后,就有机会来纠正影响内心的日常行为,而就在这种挖掘内心的同时,对语言的功能会加深认识,对语言的各种各样的组合就会产生兴趣,从而培养起更多的对表达艺术的了解,还可以扩展到同样是表达内心秩序的音乐和绘画的领域之中去。

所以说,不远的将来我们可以看到诗人治疗师的行业在社会上出现。

spotted today, impressed by its low network latency and in this speculative greenish surrounding ...

My bitcoin node has inched its rank to 635 by bitnodes.21.co measure of PIX and a couple of weeks left incentive prize program. Other than that, my public/professional endeavor is entirely aimless :(

re-post this MLP quality piece here to spread good news from a particular -private view.

translation exercise "Chinese --> English" in traditional Chinese libertarian's fashion

受村上春树启示,人们常把弱小的民间比作“蛋”,强大的政府比作“墙”。站在“蛋”一边,不仅政治正确,道德上更是无可非议。问题在于,墙有墙的毛病,蛋有蛋的问题:以“墙”“蛋”作为判别政治是非的标准,中国只会永陷轮回。

Inspired by 村上春树's writing-on-the-wall, we tend to see weak clan in any political make-ups as 'egg shell', established main faction as 'great wall'. Solidarity placed with 'egg shell', one not only see himself as courageous but also righteous. The polemic hidden in this dichotomy, seeking best ways to fix a crumbling wall, to prevent bad odor from egg shell requires more than naming things alone: judging right and wrong from simple proclaimation of allegience to 'egg shell' party or 'great wall' party. Rigging party lines shall forever make great national relations like China/US falling under the spell of Dalai Lama's re-incarnation of animal farms.

[受村上春树启示,人们常把弱小的民间比作“蛋”,强大的政府比作“墙”。站在“蛋”一边,不仅政治正确,道德上更是无可非议。问题在于,墙有墙的毛病,蛋有蛋的问题:以“墙”“蛋”作为判别政治是非的标准,中国只会永陷轮回。]

辛亥之前,满清曾是墙,革命党是蛋。在孙中山领导下,蛋推翻了墙,结果是百年动乱,几千万人死于非命。

本朝之前,地主曾是墙,农民曾是蛋。在共产党领导下,蛋打倒了墙,其结果怎样,蛋最清楚。(土改消灭数百万地主,十年后大饥荒饿死数千万农民。两造之间,难道没有因果?是非恩怨,谁又说得清楚?)

在墙的眼里,蛋是刁民,必须镇压;在蛋的心中,墙是暴政,必须推翻。墙击碎了蛋,人肉宴席继续;蛋推翻了墙,主客易位,宴席照旧。

几千年来,墙镇压了一批批刁民,结果是更多的刁民;蛋推翻了一座座高墙,结果是更高的高墙。试看哪朝哪代的刁民,有今天维权律师专业?与无产阶级专政的高墙相比,历代王朝的城墙,不过是一道土坎。

那种认为刁民只能镇压,三天不打,上房揭瓦的说法,自然不可取。那种所谓既得利益集团不可能放弃自身利益,民主只能靠底层倒逼的说法,也是自相矛盾。因为它无异于是说,民主永无可能。既然任何在台上的人,都不会放弃自身利益,凭什么说你上了台就会例外?既然你不能例外,打倒台上的人,又有什么意义?

事实上,恰恰是既得利益集团放弃自身利益,使人类社会得以缓慢而稳定的进步。毛泽东说,反对派不打不倒;扫帚不到,灰尘照例不会自己跑掉。结果是,扫帚不仅扫走了灰尘,也扫走了文明。革命创造的问题,几乎总是超过它想解决的问题。

华盛顿遗孀解放黑奴,不是因为黑奴倒逼,是出于自我利益的考虑;文革后大学招生、留学生出国,不是因为学生倒逼,是改革开放的需要;中国数千年农业税废除,不是因为农民倒逼,是政府衡量得失的结果;四中全会提出依法治国,也不是因为精英倒逼,是国家治理现代化的需要。

权利,有些是争出来的,如印度独立和黑人人权;但更多则源于自然的生长,是顺应潮流、潜移默化的结果。争出来的权利写在纸上,长出来的权利印在心里。

From Xi xiaoxing's Temple Univ. profile:

Biographical Sketch

Xiaoxing Xi is the Department Chair and the Laura H. Carnell Professor of Physics at Temple University. Prior to joining Temple in 2009, he was a Professor of Physics and Materials Science and Engineering at the Pennsylvania State University. He received his PhD degree in physics from Peking University and Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Science, in 1987. After several years of research at the Karlsruhe Nuclear Research Center, Germany, Bell Communication Research/Rutgers University, and University of Maryland, he joined the Physics faculty at Penn State in 1995.

Research Interests

Xiaoxing Xi’s research focuses on the materials physics underlying the applications of oxide, boride, and transition metal dichalcogenide thin films, in particular epitaxial thin films and heterostructures at the nanoscale. Using various deposition techniques including Laser Molecular Beam Epitaxy and Hybrid Physical-Chemical Vapor Deposition, his group is currently working on the atomic layer-by-layer growth of artificial oxide heterostructures, magnesium diboride thin films for electronic and radio frequency cavity applications, iron pnictide superconductor thin films for phase sensitive measurements, and thin films of 2D layered materials transition metal dichalcogenides. He has published over 300 papers in refereed journals, book chapters, and conference proceedings, and holds three patents in the area of thin films of high-Tc superconductors and magnesium diboride.
