Abstract
Abstract:This essay brings a process approach to the One-Many problem as treated in Gilles Deleuze's thought, by focusing on the work of Ṣadr al-Dīn Muhammad al-Shīrāzī (Shiraz, 1571–1640). First acknowledging Avicenna's concept of the univocity of being (attributed to John Duns Scotus) that influenced Deleuze, this essay examines how later Islamic philosophy, only recently transmitted to the West, provides methods for a lively process-based ontology. It compares Ṣadrā's process cosmology to those of Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz and Alfred North Whitehead and examines his critique of abstraction in light of tashkīk, systematic ambiguity or modulation. The essay argues that Ṣadrā's influence can make generative contributions to Deleuzean thought in terms of process realism, tashkīk as disjunctive synthesis, immanent causality, singularity, and an optimistic, worldoriented approach. Ṣadrā's work allows us to rethink the boundary between philosophy and theology, and the essay proposes means to de-transcendentalize religious philosophy, if necessary.
摘要:本文通过关注Ṣadr al- d n Muhammad al-Shīrāzī (Shiraz, 1571-1640)的工作，为吉尔·德勒兹思想中处理的一多问题提供了一种过程方法。本文首先承认影响了德勒兹的阿维森纳存在单一性的概念(归功于约翰·邓斯·司各特)，并考察了直到最近才传入西方的后期伊斯兰哲学是如何为生动的基于过程的本体论提供方法的。它将Ṣadrā的过程宇宙论与戈特弗里德·威廉·冯·莱布尼茨和阿尔弗雷德·诺斯·怀特黑德的过程宇宙论进行了比较，并从tashk k、系统模糊或调制的角度审视了他对抽象的批判。本文认为Ṣadrā的影响可以对德勒兹的过程现实主义思想、作为分离综合的任务论、内在因果关系、奇点以及乐观的、面向世界的方法做出生成性的贡献。Ṣadrā的工作让我们重新思考哲学与神学之间的界限，并在必要时提出将宗教哲学去先验化的方法。
