「跨領域」的知識挑戰
一篇論文去年投稿國外期刊Philosophia，歷經一年的審查，今天終於收到錄取通知，內心份外感到歡喜。此一結果對我有特殊意義，畢竟我是東方哲學背景出身，分析哲學的閱讀和寫作只能算是副業（或者說不務正業）。
此期刊收錄於AHCI, The
Philosopher's Index等，由Springer出版；在哲學期刊評選四級中列為第一級。這樣等級的期刊，連專業的分析哲學工作者也未必能被青睞，而我以「業餘」之姿被肯定，只能說自己是幸運的。當然我的朋友周熙思把我不怎麼流暢的英文修訂為道地的英文，也是我要致上謝意的。
這篇文章名為A Critique
of Epistemic Subjectivity，篇幅不長，主要是批判哲學家John R. Searle論證中的一個概念（即「知識主觀性」Epistemic Subjectivity）。
十多年前讀到Searle所提的概念，我就覺得怪怪的；博士班期末報告曾約略討論之，直到前幾年去UC Berkeley短訪時，聽Searle課時他又提到相同觀點，才決定進一步討論之。
當然這篇論文不是第一次投稿就被接受，先前也曾投到分析哲學界頂尖期刊；只是投稿者甚眾，還是被刷了下來。去年五月投到Philosophia，這期刊雖不能說是拔尖，但應該也算是中上。
過去我的東方哲學研究，一直注意西方學界（特別是英語學界）相關課題的討論，而今我能參與其中，不再限於東方哲學領域，對我是一種鼓勵。未來機緣成熟，我希望還能有類似的成果發表，讓自己接受「跨領域」的知識挑戰。
把接受信函附在下面以作紀念：
