ABSTRACT

This paper considers David Best’s claim that descriptions of events in sport as being ‘dramatic’ or ‘tragic’ employ those terms in a figurative sense, along with Stephen Mumford’s rejection of that view. The paper begins by outlining Mumford’s argument before locating the nature of Best’s argument in an elaboration of Philosophical Investigations §43 and Wittgenstein’s wider employment of the concepts of a language-game and a form of life. It then looks closely at different uses of the term ‘dramatic’ before elaborating Best’s description of the conventions of drama in brief discussion of uses of the terms ‘tragic’, ‘illusion’ and ‘emotion’ and their cognates, while considering the implications of those for Mumford’s distinction between what he calls ‘real and imagined drama’. The paper then stresses some important differences between sport and drama, before concluding with some remarks on how we might understand descriptions of sport as being dramatic, and on the origins of the confusion in relation to this issue as being in the construction of philosophical theories.

意义与用途:戏剧与美学

摘要

本文考虑了大卫·贝斯特关于将体育事件描述为“戏剧性”或“悲剧性”的说法在比喻意义上使用这些术语,以及斯蒂芬·芒福德对这种观点的拒绝。这篇论文首先概述了芒福德的论点,然后在详细阐述哲学调查中找到了贝斯特论点的本质§43 和维特根斯坦对语言游戏和生活形式概念的更广泛运用。然后,它在详细讨论贝斯特对戏剧惯例的描述之前,在简要讨论术语“悲剧”、“幻觉”和“情感”及其同源词的使用之前,仔细研究了“戏剧”一词的不同用法,同时考虑了芒福德对他所谓的“真实和想象的戏剧”之间的区别。然后,本文强调了体育和戏剧之间的一些重要区别,然后就我们如何将体育描述理解为戏剧性的进行了一些评论,以及与这个问题相关的混淆起源于哲学理论的构建。
