崇高·先锋·正义——利奥塔的崇高美学思想评析

Sublime,Avant-garde and Justice——On Lyotard's Aesthetics of the Sublime

法国后现代哲学家利奥塔以对现代性和后现代性的独特理解为基础,以"呈现不可呈现之物"为核心重新解读了"崇高"这一西方美学的重要范畴,并结合先锋派艺术发展出一种后现代的崇高美学。他还把崇高美学类比于政治,将康德哲学中的反思性判断力作用于社会政治领域,试图在反思判断中发现政治判断的合理依据,以寻求社会公正并找到后现代政治的出路。

According to his special comprehension to modernity and postmodernity, Lyo- tard, the French postmodern philosopher, explained the important category in Western aes- thetics of the sublime. Moreover, combining with the avant-garde, he developed a new kind of aesthetics of the sublime. Meanwhile, Lyotard made an analogy between this aesthetics of the sublime and politics. He borrowed Kant＇s idea of reflective judgment to explain those problems in society and politics, by which he tried to find the reasonable basis of the politi- cal judgment, and then find a way out for the postmodern politics.
