作为古代审美范畴的“寒”

On the Chinese Character "Han"-A Concept of Chinese Ancient Aesthetic Field

“寒”在中国古代诗词中出现的频率很高。“寒”既体现为寒冷凄凉的具象,也在长期运用中内化为一种抽象的意象,并进而成为一种意境。“寒”不但成为中国古代文人的重要审美趣味,也反映了他们的文人意识和悲剧意识,一方面借寒境表达对自身现实境遇的不满,另一方面他们又大多沉浸在这种境地里,完成了审美化的想像性和解。这是建立于中国太阴文化基础上的具有东方色彩的审美范畴。

The word “Han” is used with a high frequency in Chinese classical poetry. It not only shows the concrete scenery of frigidity and desolation, but is also transformed into abstract imagery after long-term use. Han is also the aesthetic temperament and interest of Chinese ancient literati. It reflects their literary consciousness and their tragic consciousness. They convey their resentment against reality through Han. On the other hand, they unconsciously immerse themselves in such aesthetic temperament so as to accomplish their imaginative conciliation between literature and reality. It is one of the aesthetic categories with oriental color which is based on Chinese lunar culture.
