载道：中国电影功能观念——“道统”观念对中国电影及电影审美观念的影响述略

Doctrine Carrying:Function View of Chinese Movie——On the Influence of"Taoist Orthodoxy"Concept on Chinese Movie and Movie Aesthetic

中国文艺的"道统"观念是民族传统文化结构体系中一个重要的组成部分,决定着文艺的思维方式和价值标准。电影这种艺术形态尽管是舶来品,一经传到中国,便被中国传统文化所消解而使之中国化。电影通过迎合传统的艺术观念,继承了功能目的论的艺术理论观,从文以载道的艺术观念出发来把握电影作品和电影创作方法,带有浓厚的民族意识和民族风格。一代代电影人所追求的,不是改良社会,唤起民众,挽救危亡,就是关注民族生存,思考人类命运这类极为崇高的人生目的。注重认识功能和教化功能的载道传统在中国电影中得到了轰轰烈烈的张扬。中国电影始终在传统艺术理论的关怀下。创造性地继承和发扬了中华传统审美文化的叙事智慧。

The Taoist orthodoxy concept in Chinese art and literature is an important component of traditional culture which decides the thinking mode of art and literature and the value criteria. Movie, as a form of art, was borrowed and as soon as its arrival in China, movie was transformed by Chinese traditional culture and became localized. To cater for the traditional concept of art, movie inherits the art theory concept of functional purpose. Strong national consciousness and style can be recognized in movie products and movie production method which start from the concept of art and literature carrying doctrine. Generations and generations of movie makers seek noble purposes such as society reform weakening people; saving country caring national survival and contemplating human fate. The tradition of orthodoxy concept which focuses on recognition function and cultivation function is expressed completely in Chinese movies. Always with traditional theory of art and literature, Chinese movie creatively inherits and carries forward the narrative wisdom of traditional Chinese aesthetic culture.
