摘 要： 现象学的“被给予”，特别是“人格的被给予”概念适用于有关“文化”的阐释。首先需要考察的是“人格”概念，并以“总体人格”来界说文化；在此基础上再着手探讨“文化先天”的问题；最后，借助东西方跨文化关系的实例，分别从人格的世代生成性结构与“空”这两个方面来展开“跨文化先天”这一论题。

Personal Givenness and Cultural A prioris
Anthony J. Steinbock
Abstract: I treat the phenomenological notion of givenness, and in particular, the necessity of taking into account personal givenness where culture is concerned（1）. After examining the notion of person and describing culture in terms of the collective person（2）, I take up the notion of cultural a prioris（3）. Finally, I develop the issue of intercultural a prioris with an example of an intercultural relation of West and East, respectively, in terms of the personal structure of Generativity and emptiness（4）.
Key words: a priori; culture; generativity; givenness; person; Scheler
