Schafer声景观理论经典著作的评析

An Analytic Review of the Schafer's Classic Work of Soundscape Research

Schafer所著的声景观著作是声景观研究的开山之作和经典,近年备受旅游、地理、环境、建筑、园林、规划学界的关注,但迄今难见系统的学术述评。从Schafer宏观知识背景和著作历史环境及语境分析,Schafer的声景观概念是一个广义的、音乐主导型的、强调环境指向的概念,是否涉及视觉景观元素是模糊和不确定的。该著作开创了声景观研究及设计的很多领域,提出了声景观构成论、声景观图文符注、声景观层次体系、声景语境体系、声景观体验框架、声景观形态学、声景观象征研究、噪音声景观研究、声景观旅游、声景观设计史、声社区、声景节律、声景设计原则、声景设计措施、声景观园林、宁静声景观等诸多前瞻性研究领域和理念,开创了一个声景观的时代。

Schafer’s classics on soundscape titled as The Soundscape： Our Sonic Environment and the Tuning of the World, is the founder of the modern soundscape research. With respects to the identity of the author, the context of the work, and the related historic background, the connotation of the soundscape proposed by Schafer is a broad sense, music- based and environmental oriented terminology, it is not necessary to relate to the visual attribute of landscape. The work explored many fields of soundscape research like constitution, notation, context, experience, morphology, and symbolism, designing principle, community of the soundscape or sound. It in fact opened a new era of soundscape research and design.
