论中国古典气韵论影响下罗杰·弗莱的性灵美学思想

An Analysis of Roger Fry's Aesthetics of Sensibility under the Influence of Chinese Theory of Rhythmic Vitality

从跨文化影响视角考察,中国古典气韵论影响了英国现代主义美学家罗杰·弗莱的性灵美学思想。20世纪初中国古典气韵论通过汉学话语、文物鉴评的专业和科学话语、现代主义美学话语与弗莱的现代主义美学融合,形成与他扎根西方现代美学传统的形式主义美学平行的性灵美学思想。弗莱的性灵美学以艺术家、艺术品、艺术审美为三维,统摄艺术家的精神生命、艺术品的自足生命和审美鉴赏中的审美情感,以艺术家内在精神生命的外化溢射和感知还原为双向生成结构。性灵美学为从比较文明视角研究世界文学和艺术提供了新的思想资源。

Judging from the perspective of transcultural influence, the classical Chinese theory of rhythmic vitality clearly influenced the British modernist aestheticist Roger Fry's thought of sensibility. In early 20th century, classical Chinese theory of rhythmic vitality was fused with Fry's modernist aesthetics through the discourse of Sinology, the professional and scientific discourse of antique connoisseurship, and the discourse of modernist aesthetics, and thus facilitated the inception of his aesthetic thought of sensibility in parallel to his formalist aesthetics that was rooted in the modern aesthetic tradition of the West. Fry's aesthetics of sensibility encompasses three dimensions, namely, artist, artwork, and artistic aesthetics, holistically meditates on the spiritual life of artist, the self-sufficient life of artwork, and the aesthetic emotion in aesthetic appreciation, and foregrounds the two-way generative structure purported by the external emanation of artist's inner spiritual life and cognitive revivification. Aesthetics of sensibility offers new conceptual resources for the study of world literature and art from the perspective of comparative civilization.
