《中庸》的人生美学初探

Research of Aesthetics of Life in the Doctrine of the Mean

《中庸》以"诚"、"礼"、"中庸"三个范畴展现了独特的人生美学路径。"诚"体现为一种不断求索的生命精神,又是人生审美的最高理想与境界;"礼"以合理的生活事实及规范的持久性,使个体的审美心态趋于中正平和,是审美发生的理性基础与必要准备。"诚"与"礼"的融合,是理性与感性的统一,亦是由审美自律走向审美超越的过程,体现了"中庸"的审美特点。

In the Doctrine of the Mean,aesthetic approach was expressed in the following three categories：integrity,etiquette and the doctrine of the mean.Integrity is a continuously explorating spirit and it is also the highest ideal and realm of aesthetic;etiquette is the rational foundation and necessary praparation of aesthetic and it makes the individual aesthetic attitude tend to be moderate and peaceful by the affection of rational life facts and traditional standard.The fusion of integrity and etiquette means the agreement of ration and perceptual and this is a process from aesthetic self-discipline to the aesthetic transcendence;that is the aesthetic characteristic in the Doctrine of the Mean.
