中国美学百年反思的几个问题

Reflections on Some Critical Issues of Chinese Aesthetics from the Perspective of Centennial Retrospection

中国现当代美学由传统美学转型,逐步形成了五四新文化运动美学、中国化马克思主义美学、中国特色当代美学等发展阶段和发展过程。这个发展过程基本上与五四新文化运动的一百年相同步。回顾这一百年的中国美学发展,成绩是辉煌的,但是,问题也是十分明显的。对中国美学百年进行反思,就是要把这些问题清理出来,明确它们的现象表征,找出它们的根源,提出解决问题的有效办法,以利于中国当代美学的进一步发展。中国当代美学的发展必须坚持以马克思主义美学为指导,努力"推陈出新"和"返本开新",必须反对把马克思主义美学完全政治化,反对把马克思主义美学唯一化,既反对唯我独尊和宗派主义,又反对唯我独左和自闭主义,以中国传统美学思想为基础,以西方美学为参照系,建设中国特色当代美学,建构中国特色马克思主义美学或者中国特色社会主义美学。

Chinese modern and contemporary aesthetics has transformed from traditional aesthetics and gradually formed several development phases including aesthetics of the May 4thNew Culture Movement,Sinicized Marxist aesthetics,contemporary aesthetics with Chinese characteristics,etc. This development process synchronizes basically with the hundred years after the May4 th New Culture Movement. Reviewing the development of Chinese aesthetics during the hundred years,it can be found that the achievements are brilliant,but the problems are also very obvious. The purpose of the reflection on Chinese aesthetics in the past100 years is to sort out these problems,figure out their phenomenal characterization,find out their roots,and put forward effective ways to solve them,so that it can facilitate the further development of Chinese contemporary aesthetics. The development of Chinese contemporary aesthetics should be under the guidance of Marxist aesthetics,trying to bring forth the new through the old and return to nature and innovate the new. It's necessary to oppose entirely politicalizing Marxist aesthetics. We should be opposed to egotism,sectarianism,and autism of Marxism. The construction of contemporary aesthetics with Chinese characteristics,Marxist aesthetics with Chinese characteristics or socialism aesthetics with Chinese characteristics,should be based on traditional Chinese aesthetics and refer to western aesthetics.
