Patyrimo betarpiškumas ir lingvistinis reliatyvumas: epistemologinės architektūros ginče dėl pirahã kalbos
Pirahã diskusija įprastai pateikiama kaip empirinis ginčas dėl rekursijos ir universaliosios gramatikos. Šiame straipsnyje teigiama, kad tokia formuluotė nesuteikia galimybės pakankamai išsamiai ištirti svarbias epistemologines prielaidas. Remiantis sistemine kokybine Web of Science bazėje indeksuotų leidinių (n = 25) apžvalga, tyrime pasitelkiamas struktūrinis kodavimas, leidžiantis nustatyti, kokių nuostatų laikomasi dėl rekursijos, patyrimo sampratos bei pamatinių epistemologinių prielaidų. Apibendrinus duomenis, buvo sudaryta lyginamoji matrica (Patyrimas × Epistemologija × Rekursija × Reliatyvumas). Tyrimas leido išskirti tris patyrimo ontologijas – duomenų, normos ir struktūros ontologijas – bei keturias aiškinamąsias architektūras: kultūrinę-pragmatinę, skaitinę-universalistinę, metodologinę-formaliąją ir ontologinę-fenomenologinę. Prieita prie išvados, kad šis mokslinis ginčas bei pirahã skaitinio pažinimo tyrimas patenka į silpnojo lingvistinio reliatyvumo perspektyvą. Iš šio požiūrio taško „patyrimo betarpiškumo“ sąvoka iškyla kaip epistemologiškai
