So welcome to our introductory lecture on argumentation. Why do we want to argue? Why do we try to convince other people to believe things that they dont wan
13、t to believe? And is that even a nice thing to do? Is that a nice way to treat other human being, try and make them think something they dont want to think? Well, my answer is going to make reference to three models for arguments. (1) The first model lets call this the dialectical model is that we t
14、hink of arguments as war. And you know what thats like. There is a lot of screaming and shouting and winning and losing. (2) And thats not really a very helpful model arguing, but its a pretty common and fixed one. I guess you must have seen that type of arguing many times in the street, on the bus
15、or in the subway.Lets move on to the second model. The second model for arguing regards arguments as proofs. Think of a mathematicians argument. Heres my argument. Does it work? Is it any good? (3) Are the premises(前提) warranted? Are the inferences(推论)) valid? Does the conclusion follow the premises
16、? (4) No opposition, no adversariality(对抗) not necessarily any arguing in the adversarial sense.(5) And theres a third model to keep in mind that I think is going to be very helpful, and that is arguments as performances, arguments as being in front of an audience. We can think of a politician tryin
17、g to present a position, trying to convince the audience of something.But theres another twist(转折) on this model that I really think is important; namely, that when we argue before an audience, (6) sometimes the audience has a more participatory role in the argument; that is, you present you argumen
18、ts in front of an audience who are like juries(陪审团) that make a judgment and decide the case. (5) Lets call this model the rhetorical model, (7) where you have to tailor(迎合) your argument to the audience at hand.Of those three, the argument as war is the dominant one. It dominates how we talk about
19、arguments, it dominates how we think about arguments, and because of that, (8) it shapes how we argue, our actual right on target. We want to have our defenses up and our strategies all in order. We want killer arguments. Thats the kind of argument we want. It is the dominant way of thinking about a
20、rguments. When Im talking about arguments, thats probably what you thought of, the adversarial model.But the war metaphor, the war paradigm(范例) or model for thinking about arguments, has, I think, negative effects on how we argue. (9) First, it elevates tactics over substance. You can take a class i
21、n logic argumentation. You learn all about the strategies that people use to try and win arguments and that makes arguing adversarial; its polarizing(分化的). And the only foreseeable outcomes are triumph glorious triumph or disgraceful(可耻的) defeat. I think those are very destructive effects, and worst
22、 of all, (10) it seems to prevent things like negotiation and collaboration(合作). Um, I think the argument-as-war metaphor inhibits(阻止) those other kinds of resolutions to argumentation.(11) And finally this is really the worst thing arguments dont seem to get us anywhere; theyre dead ends(死胡同). We d
23、ont anywhere. Oh, and one more thing. (12) That is, if argument is war, then theres also an implicit(绝对的) aspect of meaning learning with losing.And let me explain what I mean. Suppose you and I have an argument. You believe a proposition(命题) and I dont. And I say, “Well, why do you believe that?” A
24、nd you give me your reasons. And I object and say, “Well, what about?” And I have a question: “Well, what do you mean? How does it apply over here?” And you answer my question. Now, suppose at the end of the day, Ive objected, Ive questioned, (13) Ive raised all sorts of questions from an opposite p
25、erspective and in every case youve responded to my satisfaction. And so at the end of the day, I say, “You know what? I guess youre right.” Maybe finally I lost my argument. But isnt it also a process of learning? So you see arguments may also have positive effects.(14) So, how can we find new ways
26、to achieve those positive effects? We need to think of new kinds of arguments. Here I have some suggestion. If we want to think of new kinds of argument, what we need to do is think of new kinds of arguers people who argue.So try this: Think of all the roles that people play in arguments. (1) (5) Th
27、eres the proponent and the opponent in an adversarial, dialectical argument(对话式论证). Theres the audience in rhetorical arguments. Theres the reasoner in arguments as proofs. All these different roles. Now, can you imagine an argument in which you are the arguer, but youre also in the audience, watchi
28、ng yourself argue? Can you imagine yourself watching yourself argue? (15) That means you need to be supported by yourself. Even when you lose the argument, still, at the end of the argument, you could say, “Wow, that was a good argument!” Can you do that? I think you can. In this way, youve been sup
29、ported by yourself.Up till now, I have lost a lot of arguments. It really takes practice to become a good arguer, in the sense of being able to benefit from losing, but fortunately, Ive had many, many colleagues who have been willing to step up and provide that practice for me.Ok. To sum up, in toda
30、ys lecture, I have introduced three models of arguments. (1) The first model is called the dialectical model. The second one is the model of arguments as proofs. (5) And the last one is called the rhetorical model, the model of arguments as performances. I have also emphasized that, though the adversarial type of arguments is quite common, we can still make arguments produce some positive effects. Next time I will continue our discussion on the process of arguing.
