诗性与规则--汉字字体体式下的设计秩序与审美逻辑

Poetics and Rules: The Design Order and Aesthetic Logic of Chinese Characters

汉字作为承载我国集体意识的文化载体,经历了从象形、指事到会意、形声的漫长过程。在如今全球化以及多媒介并存的背景下,其话语体系不断被以西文字体为首的拉丁字母所冲击与涵化。而汉字从构形结构和组合逻辑上,皆与以西方字体为代表的拉丁字母有着迥异的差别。文章从横向历史与纵向体式两个维度,用历史梳理和对比归纳的方法分别总结出属于汉字自身审美逻辑的诗性与规则。此二者也使汉字在当下的字体设计与现代汉字字库设计上存在局限性成为必然。对于汉字字体的设计指导实践与审美逻辑重构有着重要的现实意义。

As the cultural carrier of our collective consciousness,Chinese characters have experienced a long process from pictographic and pointing to understanding and sound.Under the background of globalization and the coexistence of multiple media,its discourse system is constantly impacted and assimilated by the Latin alphabet led by the western script.Chinese characters are quite different from Latin letters represented by western fonts in terms of configuration and combination logic.This paper will summarize the poetic characteristics and rules of the aesthetic logic of Chinese characters by means of historical combing and comparative induction from two dimensions of horizontal history and vertical style.Both of them also stipulate the organic results of Chinese characters in font design and the necessity that the design of modern Chinese font bank is limited in the present.It is of great practical significance to the design and practice of Chinese font and the reconstruction of aesthetic logic.
