国外神经美学发展述要

Foreign Neural Aesthetics Development Overview

伴随着西方现代实验心理学的诞生与发展,实验美学在西方美学发展史上呈现出清晰的发展脉络。实验美学精神传统与现代脑科学技术的融合,催生了神经美学,从20世纪90年代以来,神经美学已经历了20余年的发展历程。国外神经美学研究主要有欧洲和美国两个中心。梳理西方神经美学的发展历程和最新成果,将为我们重新审视美学焦点问题及重构美学体系,提供一个良好的契机。随着脑科学的进一步发展,及自上而下的哲学美学和自下而上的实验美学的进一步融合,美学研究将为我们呈现出主客融合的崭新状态。

Based on the commencement and development of modern experimental psychology, empiricalaesthetics has experienced a long and clear developing process in western aesthetics history. Integration oftraditional empirical aesthetics and modern neuroscience technology have promoted neuroaesthetics comeinto being. Neuroaesthetics was born in the last decade of 20 century, and she is more than twenty yearsold now. There are two foreign neuroaesthetics research centers which are in Europe and America.Studying the developing process and new fruits of western neuroaesthetics will provide us with a goodopportunity to reassess the key point of aesthetics and reconstruct the aesthetics system. As theneuroscience develops further, as the 'up- down' philosophical aesthetics and 'bottom- top' empiricalaesthetics learn from each other more and more, aesthetics study will step into a new term, which willfully take subjective and objective factors into account.
