metaphysics 中文词源


metaphysics 形而上学,玄学

来自希腊语ta metaphysika,写在物理学后面的作品,来自meta,在后,physika,物理,词源同Physics.原指古希腊哲学家亚里士多德的编辑者在编辑完其物理方面的作品之后编辑其它作品所用的标题,后来被拉丁学者误解为超越物理的学问,即玄学,引申词义玄而上学。并由该词衍生出科学名词前缀meta-,元,始,玄。

metaphysics 英文词源


metaphysics (n.)
1560s, plural of Middle English metaphisik, methaphesik (late 14c.), "branch of speculation which deals with the first causes of things," from Medieval Latin metaphysica, neuter plural of Medieval Greek (ta) metaphysika, from Greek ta meta ta physika "the (works) after the Physics," title of the 13 treatises which traditionally were arranged after those on physics and natural sciences in Aristotle's writings. The name was given c.70 B.C.E. by Andronicus of Rhodes, and was a reference to the customary ordering of the books, but it was misinterpreted by Latin writers as meaning "the science of what is beyond the physical." See meta- + physics. The word originally was used in English in the singular; plural form predominated after 17c., but singular made a comeback late 19c. in certain usages under German influence.
