During period D, I'm still alive, but I'm no longer functioning as a person.
在D阶段中,我还是活着的,但我不再作为一个人存在了。
That's why we said on the personality theory,as we went ahead in time, once the P-functioning stops,I don't exist anymore.
这就是为什么根据人格理论的说法,随着时间流逝,人格功能停止,我也不再存在。
But for Aristotle it is not the liberty of the individual so much as the functioning or functional well-being of the city that is the highest priority.
但对亚里士多德而言,并非个人自由,而是城市运作中,或能运作的福利,才是最要优先考虑的事。
A person,after all,is just a body that's functioning in the right way so as to do these person tricks.
一个人说到底就是肉体的功能,用合适的方式发挥出来。
Suppose we say then that to be alive as a person is to be able to engage in P-functioning.
假设我们说作为人而活着,就是有人格功能性。
Let's just suppose, as seems likely, that none of the P-functioning is occurring, at some point during sleep.
我们就这样设想一下,在睡眠的某个时间点上,没有任何人格功能性。
As long as my soul still exists and is functioning it's still me. I'm still around.
只要我的灵魂在,还在运作,我还活着,我还存在。
It's okay if you're not P-functioning, as long as your not P-functioning is temporary.
没有人格功能性是可以的,只要这个阶段是暂时的。
Or more carefully, it's way about talking about certain things the body can do when it's functioning properly, when it's well tuned, as we might put it.
或者更谨慎地说是谈论,身体在机能正常的时候,可以进行的一些活动,我们也可以说在音调调好的时候。
And let's just suppose that we're dealing with the normal case, where the body functioning stops at the same time as the personality functioning stops.
让我们假设我们在处理通常的案例,生理功能通常和人格功能同时停止。
If we say that to be a person is to be a P-functioning body, it seems then as though we have to conclude that when you're not P-functioning, you're dead.
如果说人是一个有人格功能性的实体,似乎就能得出以下结论,如果你没有人格功能性,你就是死亡的。
It's P-functioning,as we've put it at one time or another.
我们称之为人格功能。
Well,at first glance,you might think the answer is, look,you exist,you're alive,whatever it is--; as I said,I'm just going to be loose now, I'm going to put aside all the careful distinctions I just drew-- I'm still around as long as my body is P-functioning.
一开始,你可能会觉得答案是这样,你存在就是存活,无论;,我现在稍微放松一点规定,我要把刚才提出的区别放在一边-,只要我的身体还有人格功能我就是活着的。
So look,what I've just been talking about for the last half hour or so is the fact that we've got to get clear, in thinking about the nature of death, as to whether or not the crucial moment is the moment when the personality functioning stops or the moment when the bodily functioning stops.
过去的半个小时,我一直在说我们要搞清,死亡的本质,是人格功能还是生理功能的停止,定义了死亡。
And we can talk, then, about a person as a P-functioning body.
我们可以把人视为拥有P能力的肉体
