科学研究中形象化机制的审美因素

Aesthetic Factors of Image Visualization in Scientific Research

自鲍姆嘉通以来,美学大师们一致认为,形象或形象性是审美的理论前提,科学理论是抽象的,不可形象化。马克思关于人的本质对象化理论则认为,对于缺乏一定科学常识的人来说,自然界是其外在的陌生的对象,主体的本质力量的发展还没有与客体的存在确立一种肯定的方式,作为科学研究与创造过程中的科学家的审美观照也就不可能为他者所承认。事实上,许多科学家为了解释经验数据和现象的功能,在其理论假设与陈述中就构成了可形象化的结构或机制,并且具有极高的审美价值,科学家在寻真求美中获得了人生的解放与自由。

From A.G.Baumgarten,aesthetic masters think that image or image visualization is the premise of aesthetic experience.Scientific theories,which are abstract,are not likely to involve images.Moreover,according to the Marxian theory about human beings,the nature was an unknown object for a person who lacks in particular scientific knowledge,because the development of subjective force has found no definite way with the objective existence.Therefore,the scientists＇ aesthetic conceptions in the course of scientific research may not be acknowledged.However,in order to explain empirical data and the functions of the physical phenomena,the scientists have formed a mechanism of image thinking or image visualization in theoretical conjecture which is of great aesthetic value.They obtain liberation and freedom of life in the course of pursuing truth and beauty.
