格雷戈里·贝特森从人类学家的职业生涯,通过他对控制论和系统理论的发展,围绕“神圣”发展思想,与罗伊·巴斯卡尔的智力之旅有相似之处。贝特森的控制论和系统思想对批判实在论的基础和辩证法作出了贡献,他的最后一本死后出版的《天使的恐惧:走向和神圣的认识论》增加了我们对巴斯卡尔的元实在的理解。Bateson在1936年至1987年的工作发展与Bhaskar在1975年至2016年的工作发展之间的相似性使得理论的发展增加了他们各自对元现实和神圣的欣赏。因此,通过Bateson和Bhaskar之间的对话,我们可以开发出比Bhaskar的元现实更高层次的世界理解。
Gregory Bateson’s career from anthropologist, through his development of cybernetics and systems theory, to developing ideas around ‘the sacred’, has parallels with Roy Bhaskar’s intellectual journey. This paper proposes that as well as Bateson’s theory of cybernetics and systemic thought making a contribution to basic and dialectic critical realism, his final and posthumously publishedAngels Fear: Towards and Epistemology of the Sacredadds to our understanding of Bhaskar’s metaReality. Similarities between the development of Bateson’s work from 1936 to 1987 and Bhaskar’s work from 1975 to 2016 enable the development of theory that adds to both of their respective appreciations of metaReality and the sacred. Thus, by starting a conversation between Bateson and Bhaskar, we can develop a higher order understanding of the world than proposed by Bhaskar’s metaReality alone.
