从逻辑起点到体系建构——读吕艺生先生新作《舞蹈美学》

Comments on Aesthetics of Dancing Art Written by Mr. Lv Yisheng——From its Logical Start to Its Framework

吕艺生先生的《舞蹈美学》立足于"大舞蹈观",从原始舞蹈到剧场舞蹈,从中国古代乐舞到西方近现代舞蹈,纵观中西舞蹈的历史,透过纷繁复杂的舞蹈现象,努力探求舞蹈艺术本体的价值所在。《舞蹈美学》从"身心一元"观点出发,论证了无论是模仿还是操练(表现)的舞蹈,终究是"意识的肢体表现"。《舞蹈美学》由本质论、本体论、审美论三个部分共同建构,却始终没有脱离理论研究的逻辑起点,最终形成完整的学术体系。笔者认为,吕艺生先生的《舞蹈美学》建构了中国舞蹈艺术理论的"元艺术学"。

Based on a big picture of dancing art, Aesthetics of Dancing Art written by Mr. LV Yisheng surveys the history of Western and Chinese dance from aboriginal dance to theater dance, from ancient Chinese dance to modern western dance, and attempts to explore the core value of dancing art by tracking diversified dancing phenomena. Aesthetics of Dancing Art, with a perspective of ＂a unity of body and mind＂, reveals that dancing, no matter imitative or expressional, is ultimately ＂the body expression of ideas＂. This book, consisting of three parts： essentialism, ontology and aesthetics, never deviates from the logical point of ＂ a unity of body and mind＂ and ultimately forms its complete academic framework. I assert that Aesthetics of Dancing Art written by Mr. Lv conceive the primary basis for the theories of Chinese dancing art.
