感性与理性的调适:重建和谐美学

Coordination between the Perceptual and the Rational: Reconstruction of Harmonious Aesthetics

和谐一直是重要的美学范畴。但近代以前,主要强调美在客体的和谐性。到了近现代,主体性居于主导地位,并发展到极致。从而需要走向新的形态:感性与理性的调适与重建,而这与主体间性美学的建立是密切相关的。主体间性美学与古代的和谐美学的不同之处在于:前者是在主体性的充分发展基础上对其片面性的超越和修正,后者是在无主体性或主体性微弱的前提下与外部对象的妥协。

Harmony has always been an important category in aesthetics. But emphasis remained on the harmony of beauty in the object. In the contemporary and modern period, subjectiveness comes to take the leading position, and reaches its zenith, thus requiring the development of a new form, which is the coordination between and reconstruction of the perceptual and the rational. This, however, is closely related to the establishment of intersub-jectivity. This difference between aesthetics of intersubjectivity and that of harmony in old times lies in that the former is the transcendence and revision of the one - sidedness of subjectiveness based on its full development, while the latter is a concession made to the external object on precondition that subjectiveness does not exist or is weak and feeble.
