论克莱夫贝尔审美情感的宗教性

On Clive Bell’s Religious Aesthetic Emotion

19世纪和20世纪发生在英格兰和欧洲大陆的美学运动将世俗艺术和宗教表达联系到一起。十九世纪新天主教或天主教皈依运动在英国、法国和德国盛行。一些艺术团体,如天主教德国拿撒勒艺术家,就将新发现的信仰与美学结合在一起,而在英国,拉斐尔前派艺术团体将天主教和传统主义作为表达其反体制理想的一种手段。在一般印象中,布鲁姆斯伯里团体对宗教以及宗教艺术负面的评价多过于正面的,但其实宗教和宗教感是理解布鲁姆斯伯里团体形式主义美学中不可或缺的部分。团体中克莱夫贝尔如何描述艺术与宗教和宗教实践的关系,是理解他定义的理想的审美情感和他形式主义美学的不可或缺的部分。

In the nineteenth and twentieth century,aesthetic movements occurring across England and the European Continent linked secular art and religious expression.The nineteenth century rise of neo-Catholicism or conversion to Catholicism was prevalent in England,France,and Germany.Art groups such as the Catholic German Nazarene artists,for example,merged newfound belief with aesthetics,and in England,the Pre-Raphaelite artistic group embraced Catholicism and Tractarianism as one means of articulating their anti-establishment ideals.Among the artists,Clive Bell’s defi nition of the relationship between art and religious experience is essential for the understanding of other forms of aesthetics.
