ABSTRACT

This paper explores the Baden Neo-Kantian attempt to integrate hermeneutic ‘understanding’ (Verstehen) into the formal philosophy of the historical sciences. It focuses primarily on Heinrich Rickert’s account of history as an individuating science. It gives a systematic reconstruction of Rickert’s views on historical method, the relation between history and psychology, and the concept of culture, and it traces the development of Rickert’s encounter with Wilhelm Dilthey’s hermeneutics in the consecutive editions of The Limits of Concept Formation in Natural Science (1896/1902, 1913, 1921, 1929). The paper reveals that Rickert revised his views about the role of psychology for historical science quite fundamentally and that he did so in response to developments in Dilthey’s thinking: in 1896/1902, Rickert attacked Dilthey’s descriptive psychology and laid out the main contours of an anti-psychologistic account of historical science; but in 1921 he responded to Dilthey’s mature hermeneutic theory with a detailed account of ‘understanding’ and ‘re-experiencing’ that was in tension with his anti-psychologism about historical method.

摘要

本文探讨了巴登新康德将解释学“理解”（Verstehen）整合到历史科学的形式哲学中的尝试。它主要关注海因里希·里克特 (Heinrich Rickert) 将历史作为一门个体化科学的描述。系统地重构了里克特的历史方法观、历史与心理学的关系、文化概念，并追溯了里克特在《自然科学概念形成的局限性》连续版中与威廉·狄尔泰的解释学相遇的发展。（1896/1902、1913、1921、1929）。这篇论文揭示了里克特从根本上修改了他对心理学在历史科学中的作用的看法，他这样做是为了回应狄尔泰思想的发展：在 1896/1902 年，里克特攻击了狄尔泰的描述性心理学，并提出了反派的主要轮廓。 -历史科学的心理学解释；但在 1921 年，他对狄尔泰成熟的解释学理论做出了回应，详细描述了“理解”和“重新体验”，这与他对历史方法的反心理主义相矛盾。
