“未经反思的生活是不值得过的。”古希腊哲学家苏格拉底这样告诉我们。如果将这一原则运用于这门慕课,那么在开始上课之前,郁喆隽老师就要来反思一下为何要阅读这本书——《新教伦理与资本主义精神》,以及为什么要开设这门慕课。因此,本模块将不会急于直接进入文本本身,而是要处理一些准备性的大问题。导论将紧紧围绕“反思”一词展开,分别解说“何谓反思”、“为何反思”以及“如何反思”等问题,以此为本慕课设定一些目标和基调。

在展开对文本的深度阅读之前,本模块将系统地介绍韦伯的生平、精神特征和他所处的时代——德意志第二帝国。此外,本模块还涉及一些更为一般的问题,例如如何理解一个学者。这些内容都构成理解《新教伦理与资本主义精神》这本书不可或缺的背景。韦伯作为一个人,度过了怎样的人生,经历了哪些事件?他所处的时代,以及国家的基本状况,为韦伯写作该书提供了哪些基本的“问题意识”?了解了这些,将有助于我们更为深入地理解文本本身。

本模块将开始直接深入分析《新教伦理与资本主义精神》的文本,大致对应书中第一卷的内容。本慕课的文本解读采取“剥洋葱”的方式:郁老师不会直接告诉大家韦伯的结论,而是层层推进,逐步分析韦伯问题的由来,阐明他对一些当时流行观点的看法,并最终导出本书的核心问题之一,即宗教与经济的关系。在此过程中,我们还将涉及一些本书的核心概念,如“苦行”、“资本主义精神”和路德的职业观等。

本模块有意在两个文本解读中间安排一些对宗教内容的解说。自启蒙运动以降,自然主义和世俗主义大致成为当代人的基本假设。这可能导致我们忽视或低估宗教对文化、文明的影响。而且在一些国家的国民教育体系中,也较少涉及有关宗教的内容。因此,郁喆隽老师将从历史和文化的角度切入,大致介绍世界宗教的基本状况,并用大量的实例来说明什么是基督宗教、基督宗教的历史脉络、以及基督宗教对西方文明的塑造作用。

本模块再次回到文本的深度解读,大致对应《新教伦理与资本主义精神》全书的第二卷内容。在本模块中,我们将跟随韦伯的思路,面对全书最为精要的分析段落,来回答第一卷中提出的基本问题。本模块将处理如下一些关系:苦行与新教教派、苦行与资本主义精神。我们将看到,韦伯如何以加尔文教派的神恩蒙选和预定论为重点,阐明其神学特征与资本主义诞生之间的“选择亲缘性”。其中也涉及一些当代人无法回避的基本问题,如怎样面对时间、职业和财富等。

韦伯在《新教伦理与资本主义精神》中处理的虽然是有关欧洲基督宗教的问题,但他提出的设问在 20世纪对亚洲产生了重大的影响。本模块将以《诸世界宗教的经济伦理》中所提出的“韦伯问题”为切入点,展开对韦伯另一部名著《儒教与道教》的解读,并简要介绍亚洲学者对儒家伦理与资本主义关系的研究。在本模块最后部分,我们将对课程进行总结和回顾,回到一些关于文化与文明的大问题。郁喆隽老师希望经过本慕课的学习,所有人对这些问题都有了全新的认识。
