马克思主义审美人类学:缘起、内涵及趋势

The Origin,Connotation,and Trend of Marxist Aesthetic Anthropology

马克思主义认为,美是自然界本身具有的特性,也是人类长期社会实践的产物,它反映了人类认识自然、征服自然和改造自然,并不断创造美好生活和完善人类自身的能动过程。人类学的理论与方法使马克思主义美学有了实证的基础,消解了西方理论视野中美学只存在于精神世界的虚幻性。因此,马克思主义美学的发展始终离不开人类学材料的支撑。在国内,马克思主义美学与审美人类学相互交融,为研究中国多重语境叠合下的审美、艺术活动提供了切合的框架,推动马克思主义美学在中国文化语境中的发展。

Marxism believes that beauty is the characteristic of nature itself and the product of long-term social practice of human beings.It reflects the dynamic process of how we human understand,conquer,and remake nature,and constantly create a better life and improve human beings ourselves.The theories and methods of anthropology provide an empirical basis for Marxist aesthetics and dispel the illusion that aesthetics only exists in the spiritual world in the western theoretical vision.Therefore,the development of Marxist aesthetics is inseparable from the support of anthropological materials.At home,the integration of Marxist aesthetics and aesthetic anthropology provides appropriate framework for the study of aesthetic and artistic activities under the overlapping of multiple contexts in China,and promotes the development of Marxist aesthetics in the context of Chinese culture.
