北京名人故居的审美功能论

The Aesthetic Function of the Former Residence ofBeijing Celebrities

北京名人故居是作为北京的重要文化载体存在的。无论从传统的中华美学角度,还是从近年来西方环境美学的角度,审美功能都具有多重性和矛盾性。对于北京名人故居作为建筑而具有的审美功能可以结合艾伦·卡尔松有关环境美学的功能性阐释,从外在和内在两个方面来考察。外在的方面表现为培养社会整体的民族意识、历史情结和爱国精神,内在的方面则表现为对名人故居的审美自觉。环境美学和中华美学传统相融合有助于进一步探讨北京名人故居审美功能。

The former residence of celebrities in Beijing exists as an impor-tant cultural carrier of Beijing. Whether from the perspective of traditional Chineseaesthetics or from the perspective of western environmental aesthetics in recentyears, the aesthetic function is multiple and contradictory. The aesthetic functionof the celebrity’s former residence in Beijing as a building can be combined withAlan Carlson’s relevant functional interpretations in environmental aesthetics, fromboth external and internal aspects. The external aspect is reflected in the cultivationof the national consciousness, historical complex and patriotic spirit of the wholesociety, and the internal aspect is mainly manifested in the consciousness of thecelebrity’s former residence aesthetics. The combination of environmental aestheticsand Chinese aesthetic traditions helps to further understand the aesthetic functionof the celebrity’s former residence in Beijing.
