摘要
爱默生的创新理念植根于大自然,具有“超验”的特色。它不拘一格,不可量化,但可与大自然一样,持续进行自身更新;它虽无固定的模式,却有灵性、德性和创造性这三个基点。它为19世纪美国文艺复兴做出了重大贡献,有着深刻的历史意义。它也有着显著的现实意义,给予当代中国学者以宝贵的启示——应激活人的潜在的灵性,认清人的直觉感悟的重要性,认清人与大自然之间的多种互动关系,真切感受大自然对人的心灵所产生的重大影响;应恪守人格独立的精神,汲取世界文化的精华,注重传统文化思想的现代化和外国文化思想的本土化,注重文心的净化和德性的提升;应培养创造性思维,主动探究个体生命的终极价值,积极寻觅文艺复兴、民族崛起和社会进步的必由之路。
Genuinely transeendentalistic, Ralph Waldo Emerson's theory of creation is rooted in nature, It transcends the limitations of systemization and quantification, and keeps renewing itself by following the laws and rhythms of nature; it defies any dogmatic patterns, and attaches importance to the three organic ideas of intuitiveness, virtuousness, and creativeness. Because of its contdbutiun to the 19^th - Century American Renaissance, Emerson's theory of creation has been considered to be of historic significance. It is of immediate significance as well, for it might function to awaken contemporary Chinese scholars to the importance of the following truths- the individual's soul should be activated; intuitive learning encouraged; moral consciousness uplifted; the spiritual impact of nature upon man acknowledged; the essence of social realities explored; the ideal of self-reliance maintained; age-old cultural traditions updated; foreign cultural concepts localized; the inspired individual' s creative power emphasized; the road to literary revival and social improvement taken.
