美学的身体转向及其生态诗学意义——兼评王晓华教授身体美学研究

The Turn to Somaesthetics and Its Significance to Ecopoetics:A Review of Prof. Wang Xiaohua’s Somaesthetic Study

尽管身体美学在中国学界兴起的时间不长,但其学术势头强劲,已迅速从一个美学范畴发展成为一门新型美学形态,其理论构建已初见雏形,并成功实现了身体与生态之间的嫁接,以及身体诗学与生态诗学之间的交融。身体美学兴起的直接动因是传统美学自身出了问题,生态批评也为其发展注入了强大的动力。然而,身体美学的理论构架还存在诸多不足,其中环境公正维度的缺位是其主要缺憾。只有在构建身体美学时考量身体的环境公正维度,才能构建真正多元、平等包容、非歧视性的新型美学形态。

Somaesthetics has shown strong academic momentum and rapidly developed into a new aesthetic form since its emergence in Chinese Academia not long ago.With its theoretical framework already in sight,somaesthetics has successfully grafted the concept of body on ecology and integrated itself into ecopoetics.The rise of somaesthetics is directly driven by the inherent defects of traditional aesthetics and greatly motivated by the development of ecocriticism.However,its theoretical framework needs to be improved and its lack of an environmental justice dimension is a critical deficiency.Only by taking the environmental justice dimension of body into consideration when establishing somaesthetics can we make possible a new aesthetic form which is truly diversified,equal,inclusive and unbiased.
