生命意识与文艺创作

The Sense of Life and the Literary and Artistic Creation

生命意识,是具有了意识活动能力的人类,对自我生命存在的感知与体悟,以及在此基础上产生的对人的生命意义的关切与探寻。从性质上看,生命意识又可分为原初生命意识与文化生命意识两个层级,前者主要体现为生命体验,后者主要体现为生命思考、生命策略与生命关爱。生命意识是一位诗人、作家、艺术家得以成功的保障,是其作品魅力得以生成的重要原因。文艺作品境界的高下优劣,亦与创作主体投入的生命意识的程度与性质有关。创作者只有立足于自己的生命体验,又能以超越性的襟怀,以大生命意识的视野透视人性,观照人生,体察万物,才能创作出境界高超,具有强盛生命活力的作品。

The sense of life is the perception and reflection on existence by human beings,and the concern and search for the significance of human life.It can be divided into two layers,i.e.the original sense of life and the cultural sense of life.The former mainly manifests as life experience,and the latter as reflection on the intricacies and dynamics of social life.The sense of life is the insurance for success of a poet,a writer,or an artist,and an important reason for the generation of great charm of their works.The quality in realm of the literary and artistic works is also related to the degree and nature of the sense of life devoted by the creation subject.Only a creator bases on ones own life experience,and on the foundation,to see through human nature,to perceive life,and to observe the universe with a transcendent mind as well as grand perspective of the sense of life,could he/she creates works with a high state and strong vitality.
