欧洲近代两次文学思潮对“人生意义”的影响

The Influence of European Two Times Literary Thoughts on the "Sense of life" in Modern Times

在欧洲中世纪 ,由于神学占统治地位 ,人成为神的奴隶 ,失去了自身价值。文艺复兴开始了“人”“神”之争 ,人文主义者明确提出了人生的目的是追求幸福 ,还“人”以本来面目。启蒙运动又更进一步要求变革社会制度 ,从审视人生走向审视社会 ,从对社会制度的改造中实现人的自由平等权利 ,将人生的意义提高为追求人类的普遍幸福。

Human beings became the slaves of God and lost their values because theology occupied a dominant position in Middle Ages of Europe. The Renaissance started the argument between 'Man' and 'God'. The humanists advanced clearly that people,s aim was to seek happiness and return 'people' true features. The Enbightenment asked to transform social system further . It also asked to run from examining life to gazing at society and realize the free and equal rights from remowlding social system . It raised the sense of life--pursuring common happiness of human beings.
