新英格兰超验主义生态哲学维度探释

A Study on the Ecological Philosophy Dimension of New England Transcendentalism

探赜新英格兰超验主义思潮文化底蕴与文本旨归表明:这场融贯东、西方文明传统中经典智慧与道德品性的文化复兴运动具有丰富的生态哲学内涵——"超灵"本体论是其思想坐标系原点;人性本善观、自然本美观、和谐世界观则是其生态哲学思想的三条轴线——包含醒世、新民的理想主义归趣,即通过恢复精神信仰、正心修身、关爱自然、重建世界和谐来克服当时美国物质主义流弊,来端正民族、时代思想文化方向。

A probe into the cultural implication and literary orientation of New England Transcendentalism reveals that this cultural renaissance movement,which combines the classic wisdom and moral trait of the eastern and western civilizations and traditions,has a rich connotation of ecological philosophy.The oversoul ontology is the origin of its ideological coordinate system;the goodness of human nature,the beauty of nature and the harmonious world outlook are the three axes of its ecological philosophy.It contains the purport of idealism that awakens the world and motivates people,namely,to overcome the defects of American Materialism and correct the ideological and cultural direction of nations and times by restoring spiritual belief,cultivating morality,caring for nature and rebuilding world harmony.
