在“笑”中认识自己——论柏格森喜剧理论的一个重要向度

Know Yourself in “Laugh”——On an Important Dimension of Bergson’s Comedy Theory

柏格森喜剧理论中包含着一个重要向度:个体自我认知。这是由他的动态生命哲学观所决定的。他对“笑”的不动情感和滑稽(“僵”)的界定,为人发现自我的滑稽性和渺小性提供了可探讨的前提。同时,他对悲剧、喜剧的区分及与现代喜剧理论之间构成的对话,则启发主体者在“笑”所揭示的对象结构中,如何看待和定位自身的思考:只有恰当调和自身的悲剧体验与喜剧体验,才能确保自我的内在同一性,并以主动介入的方式重建自己与世界的关系。

Bergson’s dynamic life philosophy determines that his comedy theory contains the possibility of individual self-cognition.His definition that“laugh”originates from people’s rational onlooking and funny is“rigidity”provides an explorable premise for people to find their own comicality.At the same time,his distinction between tragedy and comedy and the dialogue between modern comedy theories inspire people as subjects to think about how to treat and position themselves in the object structure revealed by“laugh”,that is only by properly harmonizing their own tragic experience and comedy experience,can people ensure their internal unity and rebuild their relationship with the world by actively intervening.
