百年中国“美”命题的类型研究

A Study on the Types of the Proposition of“Beauty”in China in the Past Hundred Years

百年中国现代美学创生、推出了各种各样关于美的命题、断语。总体来看,可以从三个向度或者说采取三个参照系对这些命题进行类型划分:一是命题的学术性质(界说美的本质还是交代美的性状);一是命题中作为概念的“美”的所指;一是命题指对的作为存在的美的内涵意义。“美”的典型命题,反映出美学研究中对象、动机、立场、观念、方法、资源等因时代而异、因流派而异,甚至因个人而异。梳理、辨析中国现代美学视域里“美”的典型命题,有助于了解、认知中国现代美学的基本状貌、发展历程等,进而揭示、发现中国现代美学置身的社会文化、历史语境。

The creation of modern Chinese aesthetics in the past hundred years has produced a variety of propositions and thesis about beauty.Generally speaking,these propositions can be classified in three dimensions or in three frames of reference:One is the academic nature of proposition(defining the essence of beauty or the character of beauty);The other is the meaning of“beauty”as a concept in propositions:The third one is the connotation meaning of beauty as Being.The typical proposition of"beauty"reflects that the objects,motives,positions,ideas,methods and resources in aesthetic research vary from time to time,from school to school,and even from individual to individual.Combing and analyzing the typical proposition of“beauty”in the perspective of Chinese modern aesthetics is helpful to understand and recognize the basic appearance and development process of Chinese modern aesthetics,and then reveal and discover the social,cultural and historical context in which Chinese modern aesthetics is placed.
