知性思维与中国当代文艺学

Cognitive Thinking and Contemporary Chinese Theory of Literature and Art

由于特定的历史进程、时代氛围及文化传统的影响,在我国当代文艺学领域,曾长期习惯于黑格尔所说的独断的、孤立的、片面的"知性"思维方式,至今,如此思维之弊仍在制约着我们的文艺学研究,致使对许多问题的看法,往往不自觉地由一个极端走向另一个极端,时见由旧的片面性陷入新的片面性。即以知性能力本身而言,亦存不足。为了促进中国当代文艺学的进一步繁荣以及民族文化的复兴,我们应在清醒把握感性、知性与理性之间关系的基础上,既要警惕"非此即彼"之类的"知性"弊端,亦要重视真正的知性思维,更要有对理性思维的自觉追求。

Due to the specificity of historical development, mores of the age and cultural tradition, contemporary Chinese theory of literature and art is dominated by what Hegel termed as the pragmatic, isolated and partial cognitive thinking. Cognitive thinking has till recently been under its negative impact to the extent that the views on many issues have gone into the extreme. In order to promote the development of the contemporary Chinese theory of literature and art and the renaissance of national culture, we should understand the relationship between sensibility, intellectuality and reason, and be wary of extreme deficiencies of intellectuality by emphasizing on the intellectual and rational thinking.
