This paper argues that Maimon’s metaphilosophy presents a distinctive view on what the scientific role and method of philosophy should consist in: in the production of fictions of systematicity. It shows how Maimon’s philosophy of science links to metaphilosophical views, and ultimately leads him to adopt the so-called “method of fictions” to transform philosophy into a proper science. By connecting his remarks on scientific fictions and their methodological role with Kant’s doctrine of regulative ideas and the latter’s conception of systematicity, the paper develops a systematic account of the method of fictions, its employment in theoretical philosophy and the scientific image resulting from this view.

系统性小说:迈蒙对哲学科学方法的探索
本文认为迈蒙的元哲学对哲学的科学作用和方法应该包括在什么方面提出了独特的观点:在系统性小说的生产中。它展示了迈蒙的科学哲学如何与元哲学观点联系起来,并最终导致他采用所谓的“虚构方法”将哲学转化为一门正确的科学。通过将他对科幻小说及其方法论作用的评论与康德的规范性思想学说和后者的系统性概念联系起来,本文对小说的方法、它在理论哲学中的应用以及由此产生的科学形象进行了系统的阐述。
