美学视角下大学通识教育的本质与理想

The Essence and Ideal of the University's General Education

我国大学通识教育的实施现状有诸多令人不满意之处,关于通识教育的讨论也经久不衰。事实上,通识教育首先是一种凌驾于现实之上的理念,具有纵横包容之美以及自由、和谐统一的本质。通识教育的本质可理解为体验美、审视美、挖掘美的本质,从一般之美扩展至贯通外在世界与内心世界之"大美",其理想即为让人在体验"大美"之和谐与自由的同时形成完整人格。

There are a lot of dissatisfactions at the status of the university＇s general education in China. And the big discussion on general education is also enduring. In fact, the general education is a kind of concept above the reality, with the essence of inclusive beauty, freedom, and harmony. The essence of general education can be understood as experiencing beauty, appreciating beauty, tapping the essence of beauty, and exploring beauty from the general beauty to the ＂great beauty＂ through the outside world and the inner world. Its ideal is to develop a complete personality when experiencing the harmony and the freedom of the ＂great beauty＂.
