怀特历史哲学的关键点有两个:一是其反实在论的本体论立场;二是其语言决定论的主张。这两个方面在逻辑上是相通的,在他看来,正因为历史本身是混沌无序的,所以语言成了写作历史、理解历史的核心,语言包含着历史写作的一切奥秘,从而实现了历史哲学领域的语言学转向。怀特历史哲学存在着它自身无法克服的内在矛盾,这一矛盾只有在历史唯物主义的指导下才能从理论上加以认识并得到澄清。
There are two key points in White’s historical philosophy: one is his ontological position of anti-realism; the other is his assertion of linguistic determinism. These two aspects are logically interlinked. In his view, precisely because history itself is disorderly and chaotic, language has become the writing history and the core of history. Language contains all the mysteries of historical writing, so as to achieve Linguistic Turn in the Field of Historical Philosophy. White’s philosophy of history has its inherent contradictions that can not be overcome by itself. This contradiction can be theoretically recognized and clarified only under the guidance of historical materialism.
