中国美育现代性的三副面孔及其问题省思

Three Faces of Modernity of Chinese Aesthetic Education and Reflections on Relevant Problems

毫无疑问,现代性虽发轫于西方,但已经成为一个全球性的问题。中国美育现代性作为中国式现代化发展的重要组成部分,也是人类文明多样化和全球美育多元化的重要体现。在中国美育学现代化发展的漫长历程中,基本呈现出三副清晰可见的美育面孔:以启蒙现代性为核心目标的“情感美育观”、以群体功利价值为核心目标的“德性美育观”和以涵濡生命为核心目标的多元融通的“大美育观”。尽管这三副面孔背后都隐藏着不可避免的危机,甚至在一定程度上体现了现代化建设过程中的种种弊病。但是,这三副面孔整体上充分彰显了中国美育现代性的主要探索路径和发展轨迹,深化了中国当代美育学建构的理论深度和实践广度,对当下乃至未来中国美育现代化的深入发展具有一定的启发和借鉴意义。

There is no doubt that modernity originated in the West,but it has become a global problem.Chinese modernization is an important embodiment of the diversity of human civilization,and the modernity of Chinese aesthetic education is an important part of Chinese modernization.In the development of Chinese aesthetic education,three faces of Chinese aesthetic education modernity have been formed,namely:the“emotional aesthetic education view”with social and cultural enlightenment as the core,the“moral aesthetic education view”with the group's free development as the core,and the“great aesthetic education view”of“educating people with aesthetics and educating people with culture”.Although there are inevitable problems or deficiencies behind each face,especially the functionalist aesthetic education tendency represented by the first two,which reflects the weakness of modernization to a certain extent.However,the three faces on the whole highlight the development trajectory of Chinese aesthetic education modernity in different cultural backgrounds,deepen the theoretical depth and practical breadth of the construction of contemporary aesthetic education,and have positive significance for the construction of the discourse system of Chinese aesthetic education at present and in the future.
