攻击性审美——足球对人与自然紧张关系的消解

Aggressive Aesthetics——Football Dispels the Tension between Man and Nature

攻击性行为是人和诸多猎食类动物的共同本能,它也构建出人性的原点。作为一种狩猎遗产的戏仿性文化,足球很好地保留了这样的元素,也因此而具备了特别的审美格调。足球自身的粗粝性源于人类不断地回归到史前思维模块的能量,它揭示出人类自身所具备的一种化繁为简、化零为整、化多样为唯一的特殊动机。足球中的攻击性不仅是足球技战术的原始生发点,还是一种维持特定社群之间竞争关系的身体与心理基石。足球的攻击性带有仪式感,而排除掉了极限攻击的元素。恰是这种强大而持久的仪式化的攻击性元素,为足球竞技注入了强大活力,也保证了足球在更长的时间内不至于退出竞技体育的浩大舞台。

Aggressive behavior is the common instinct of human beings and many predators, and it also constructs the origin of human nature. As a parody culture of hunting heritage, football retains such elements well and thus has a special aesthetic style. The coarseness of football itself originates from the energy of mankind’s continuous return to the prehistoric thinking module which reveals the special motivation of mankind itself to simplify the complex, integrate the parts, and make the diversity unique. Aggression in football is not only the original starting point of football techniques and tactics, but also the physical and psychological cornerstone of maintaining the competitive relationship between specific communities. The offensive nature of football has a sense of ritual, and the element of extreme attack is eliminated. It is this powerful and lasting ritualized offensive element that has injected great vitality into football and ensured that football will not withdraw from the vast arena of competitive sports for a longer period of time.
