美育侧重对学生的情感的培养,发展发现美、欣赏美、创造美的能力,并使他们在美的感召下,得到心灵和人格的整体提升。《英美文学》是英语专业学生的一门核心课程,蕴涵大量优秀的文学作品。其在给学生带来身临其境的审美体验的同时,亦带来醍醐灌顶的人生领悟。所以,从美育的角度来研究《英美文学》课程思政的建构与实施,既是对《英美文学》课程“曲径通幽”式的深入探讨,又使课程思政的实施过程如盐溶于水一样自然,实现本质意义上的“润物细无声”,入脑入心。教师应该积极挖掘审美元素,组织各项审美活动,营造合适的审美环境来滋养学生的道德,促进学生的发展。

Aesthetic education focuses on the cultivation of students'emotions,developing their abilities of finding,appreciating and creating beauty,and promoting their souls and personalities in an all-round way through the inspiration of beauty.“British and American Literature”is a core course for English majors,which includes many excellent literary works.They enable students to have on-the-spot aesthetic experiences and deep understanding of life.So,to study the construction and implication of the ideological and political education of“British and American Literature”from the perspective of aesthetic education is both the deep exploration of the course,just like the saying“winding path leading to quiet and seclusion”,and makes the political and ideological education as natural as salt's melting in the water,thus achieving“moistening things silently”in the real sense of the word,nurturing students'mind and heart.Teachers should excavate aesthetic elements actively,organize various kinds of aesthetic activities and build proper aesthetic environments to nurture students'morality and promote the development of students.
