摘要

本篇論文是以普羅丁的《九章集》（Enneads）第四卷為核心，透過他的靈魂理論來研究他對「記憶」的詮釋。在此篇論文裡， 以他的靈魂論為開始來探討他對「同感」（sympatheia）與「攝納」（pathos）之間關係的理解，這兩者是他的「記憶」（memory）與「回憶」（recollection）理論的基礎。在他的同感理論裡，他提出一個「共同的」（koinon）概念來說明靈魂與對象之間所產生的一種「共感」（homopatheia），這個共感是我們認識外在對象的原因，藉此，他把記憶區分為「對感覺事件的記憶」與「對推論理論的記憶」兩者。

The aim of this treatise is to focus on Plotinus' Ennead IV to investigate his theory of the soul, by means of which this interpretation of memory has been acquired. The paper begins by using his notions of the soul to examine his idea of the relationship between sympathy (sympatheia) and affection (pathos), which are fundamental to his theory of memory and recollection. In his theory of sympathy he proposes a concept of ＂common＂ (koinon) to explain common affection (homopatheia), arising from the soul and its objects, and which provides the means for us to understand external objects, thereby being able to distinguish the memory of perceived things from that of reasoning.
