The article examines the impact the grammarian/philosopher Bhartṛhari (460–510) had on the way the ‘School of Recognition’ (Pratyabhijñā, tenth/eleventh c. CE) elaborated the notion that knowledge and consciousness have a close relationship with language. The paper first lays out Bhartṛhari’s ideas, showing that his theses are rationally defensible and philosophically refined. More specifically, it claims that the grammarian is defending a view which is in many respects similar to ‘higher-order theories’ of consciousness advanced by some contemporary philosophers of mind. In the second part, the paper shows how Utpaladeva and Abhinavagupta adopted Bhartṛhari’s scheme without significant alteration.

Bhartṛhari 和 Pratyabhijñā 研究：语言、知识和意识

这篇文章考察了语法家/哲学家 Bhartṛhari（460-510）对“认知学派”（Pratyabhijñā，公元第十/十一世纪）阐述知识和意识与语言有密切关系的概念的影响。这篇论文首先阐述了 Bhartṛhari 的思想，表明他的论点在理性上是站得住脚的，并且在哲学上得到了提炼。更具体地说，它声称语法学家正在捍卫一种在许多方面类似于某些当代心智哲学家提出的意识“高阶理论”的观点。在第二部分，论文展示了 Utpaladeva 和 Abhinavagupta 如何在没有重大改变的情况下采用 Bhartṛhari 的方案。
