This article turns to the neglected pedagogical concept of ingenium in order to address some shortcomings of the admiration–emulation model of Linda Zabzebski’s influential exemplarist moral theory. I will start by introducing the problem of the admiration-emulation model by way of a fictional example. I will then briefly outline the concept of ingenium such as it appears in a Renaissance context, looking particularly at the pedagogical writings of Juan Luis Vives (1492/3–1540). This will set the stage for the next part, looking at how early modern philosopher Benedict Spinoza (1632–1677) adopts a Vivesian notion of ingenium, adjusting it so as to fit into the setting of his political theory. Next, I will turn to Spinoza’s use of the concept of ingenium in relation to his portrayal of exemplary persons, offering a pedagogical model of moral exemplarism that can counter some of the perceived problems of the admiration–emulation model as it highlights the necessary fallibility of efficient exemplars as well as acknowledges the socio-political dimension of emotions. Finally, I will lay out some preliminary consequences for educational theory, hoping to offer a way of reconciling moral exemplarism with a more realistic pedagogical and psychological framework.

斯宾诺莎论机智与示范:教育理论的一些后果

本文转向被忽视的教学理念 ingenium,以解决 Linda Zabzebski 具有影响力的示范道德理论的钦佩-模仿模型的一些缺陷。我将首先通过一个虚构的例子来介绍钦佩仿真模型的问题。然后,我将简要概述在文艺复兴时期出现的天才概念,特别是胡安·路易斯·维夫斯(Juan Luis Vives,1492/3-1540)的教学著作。这将为下一部分奠定基础,看看早期现代哲学家本尼迪克特·斯宾诺莎(Benedict Spinoza,1632-1677 年)如何采用维维斯的机智概念,并对其进行调整以适应他的政治理论背景。接下来,我将转向斯宾诺莎在描绘模范人物时使用的巧妙概念,提供一种道德模范的教学模式,可以解决钦佩-模仿模式的一些感知问题,因为它突出了有效模范的必要错误,并承认了情感的社会政治维度。最后,我将阐述教育理论的一些初步结果,希望提供一种将道德榜样与更现实的教学和心理框架相协调的方法。
