论嵇康《声无哀乐论》的“和”美学思想

The Harmony Aesthetical Ideology in Ji Kang's No Sadness in Music

以“和”为美是嵇康《声无哀乐论》美学思想的核心。“和”在哲学的层面是指宇宙自然的和谐统一,它体现了宇宙生成的法则和规律。音乐代表了这种和谐统一,“和”美是音乐追求的最高理想。嵇康以“和”论乐,认为音乐的本体是与时代政治和人的情感无关的自然之和；在音乐与情感的关系上,认为音乐与情感并无必然的联系,而是一种对应关系；音乐除了移风易俗的教化功能外,还具有“导养神气,宣和情志”的娱乐功能。

Harmony aesthetics is the key factor of aesthetical ideology in Ji Kang＇s No Sadness in Music, which,from a philosophical point of view, demonstrates the logic and law of nature with harmonious integrity of universe. Music is just the representative of harmony of the kind which,in turn,is the loftist ideal of music. Ji Kang elaborated about music with harmony ideology. He maintained that music itself is natural harmony which was irrelevant to politics and human emotions. Music was not intrinsically affiliated with emotions, but in correspondence with one another. Music could serve as cultivation of disposition and uplift of ideal besides education and removal of out-dated customs.
