伦理之自然——周作人“生活的艺术”与性道德

The Naturalness of Ethics:Zhou Zuoren's"Art of Living"and Sexual Morality

就周作人的道德理论核心——性道德而言,“生活的艺术”是为了更好地满足性欲而进行的种种节制形式。与张竞生一样,周作人也主张“性的解放”,但与张竞生不同的是,他既要求实证的“科学的冷淡”,又要避免“无谓的牺牲和斗争”。“伦理之自然化”是人类在不牺牲自己的动物性的情况下寻求彻底的文明化的运动,“生活的艺术”是“凡人”跟各种领域的最前沿保持实证的关系的同时,以超动物的方式创造“自然”的社会文化的行为。

This paper delves into the central theme of sexual morality within Zhou Zuoren’s moral theory,examining the concept of the“art of living”as a means to enhance the fulfillment of sexual desires through various forms of abstinence.Similarly to Zhang Jingsheng,Zhou Zuoren advocated for“sexual liberation.”However,in contrast to Zhang Jingsheng,Zhou Zuoren emphasized the importance of both empirical“scientific indifference”and avoidance of“unnecessary sacrifice and struggle.”"Naturalization of ethics"is a movement for human beings to seek complete civilization without sacrificing their animality."Art of living"is an act of creating a"natural"social culture in a super-animal way while the"mortals"maintain an empirical relationship with the forefront of various fields.
