This is a glossary of terms used by Eric Voegelin. Some are Greek and Latin words not in common use, others are English words which, although used in their dictionary sense, carry special meaning in the context of his writing. As a convenience, I have included rare words which he uses in their simple dictionary sense (for example, “ochlocracy”).
这是沃格林所用的术语词汇。一些是不常用的希腊语和拉丁语词汇,另有一些英语词汇,尽管在英语词典上有其词义,但在沃格林的文本中有其特殊含义。为方便起见,我收录了一些沃格林使用的生僻的词汇并附以简单词义(例如:ochlocracy暴民制)
Eugene Webb has a very useful glossary in his Eric Voegelin: Philosopher of History.
尤金·韦伯在其著作《沃格林:历史哲学家》中有个非常有用的术语表。(按:该术语表是沃格林全集卷34所附“沃格林作品中使用的术语表”的基础)
For a much larger compilation of extracts from Voegelin and his commentators, see Dictionary of Voegelinian Terminology.
对于从沃格林著作以及有关沃格林的论著中提取的更为详尽的术语汇编,参看《沃格林术语词典》。
