评嵇康的《声无哀乐论》

On "The Theory of Music without Joys and Sorrow's" Written by JiKang

在险恶的政治环境中,嵇康形成了强烈的反叛意识,他的音乐美学思想与传统观念相对立,他反对对音乐社会功能作庸俗社会学的解释;对音乐的心理功能,他认为只限于躁静这一情绪层面;他高度肯定欣赏活动中欣赏者的主体价值;他的学说有其先声和响应。嵇康是中国古代美学史上卓然独立的杰出人物,但他的观点也存在着许多偏激和谬误。

Jikang evolved a strong rebel consciousness in the dangerous environment of politics. His musical idea of aesthetics was against the traditional opinion. He refused the explanation of vulgar sociology about the social function of music; He thought that the psychological function of music was only related to the emotion of restless and quietness; He thought highly of the value of the appreciative subject; His theoty had its first signs and effect. Jikang was prominent in Chinese ancient aesthetics history, but there were some exteme and falsehool in his idea.
