摘要
“妙”是介于有无之间的一种美学境界。中国美学以“妙”为美,是由道家首先提出来的。经过魏晋时人的大力倡导,“妙”在唐代以后普遍进入艺术评论中。“玄”、“神”、“远”、“古”、“逸”、“幽”、“微”、“绝”等,可视为由“妙”统摄的字群,它们均因妙不可测、趋于无限而成为中国美学中的审美范畴。
Tricky' is an aesthetic state preserved amid being and nothing. It was the Taoist School that was the first to put forward the viewpoint that Chinese aesthetics regards 'tricky' as 'beautiful'. This aesthetic viewpoint was vigorously advocated during the Wei Jin Dynasty and universally presented in literary and art criticisms throughout the Tang Dynasty. 'Mysterious' , 'miraculous' , 'remote' , 'ancient' , 'indistinct' , 'peaceful' , 'delicate' , 'peerless' , etc. can be considered as a group of words belonging to the category of the meanings of 'tricky'. Such words are placed in the Chinese aesthetic categories because they express conditions, situations, things, or states which are too subtle, too tricky, or too wonderful to infer or conjecture and which are almost infinitely tricky and intriguing.
