解构图像反思对“时间之点”的假定——贡布里希重审莱辛诗画界限的论述

Deconstructing the presumption of punctumtemporis in the image reflection:E.H.Gombrich’s reviews on G.E.Lessing’s distinctions between poetry and painting

莱辛的《拉奥孔》是西方艺术史上区隔时间艺术与空间艺术的经典名篇。贡布里希对莱辛与温克尔曼之争的艺术史勘探,揭示了莱辛区隔诗画的真实意图。通过驳斥西方图像反思所假定的“时间之点”,即对时间进行空间化建构的虚假瞬间,以及揭示读图内禀的时间跨度,贡布里希的图像心理学研究彻底解构了西方艺术哲学区隔时空艺术所凭借的观念前提。贡布里希对莱辛的《拉奥孔》及其观念传统的诠释和挑战,体现了西方人文传统中的求真精神。

G.E.Lessing’s Laocoon is a classic work in western art history which makes the distinctions between temporal art and spatial art.E.H.Gombrich interprets the disputations between G.E.Lessing and J.J.Winckelmann on art history and discloses the essential intention of Lessing's argumentations and distinctions.By refuting the concept"punctumtemporis"presupposed by western image reflection,that is the artificially spatialized moment,and by revealing the time interval in image reading,Gombrich,in his study on image psychology,completely deconstructs some premises by which the western art philosophy differentiates temporal art and spatial art.Gombrich's interpretations of and challenges against Lessing's Laocoon and its presumptions manifests the persistent pursuit for truth in the tradition of western Humanities.
