朱光潜早期美学思想中的意象概念

The Concept of Image in Zhu Guangqian's Early Aesthetic Thoughts

在《文艺心理学》、《诗论》等早期著作中,朱光潜以意象概念为核心,建构了他的审美超越论思想,提出了他的意象结构论观点,并对中国古诗的境界等问题进行了批评。朱光潜的审美超越论思想以意象为核心、以诗境的整一性为基础而得以实现。由于朱光潜受克罗齐和尼采等人的美学思想影响甚深,因而他在阐述过程中对中国古诗境界的分析多有误读,对王国维诗境说的批评多有先入为主的成分。究其原因,主要是朱光潜在两种不同意义上使用"意象"概念所造成的。朱光潜以意象为中心将中西方美学相融通的做法值得我们进一步批判、继承和发展。

In such early works as Psychology of Literature and Arts and On Poetry,Zhu Guangqian constructed his transcendental aesthetic theory centered round the concept of image,putting forwards his theory of imagery structure and his critique of the concept of jingjie(the poetic state) in Chinese poetics. Although Zhu's theory is centered around imagery,and it is realized on the basis of the unity of the poetic state,his criticism on Wang Guowei's concept of the poetic state and on the concept in ancient Chinese poetics in general appear to have missed the point,due to his preconceived ideas that were resulted from Croce's and Nietzsche's influence. The paper concludes that Zhu's different uses of the concept of imagery(Imagery) may be the cause of the misreading of Wang Guowei,but his endeavors to bridge Chinese and Western aesthetics are worth critical examination.
