走在整合人性的路上:席勒的审美现代性思考(一)

On the Way to Harmonizing Humanity

成长在现代性语境中的席勒美学 ,其形成享用了启蒙时代的滋养。在那样一个渴望自由、追求个性发展的年代里 ,席勒的美学同样打上了自由的底色。 1 789年法国大革命的爆发 ,使席勒的思考发生了变化 ,他最终选定了美学 ,希冀用审美教育的手段使分裂的人性复归和谐。当席勒凭借美学实现其自由理想时 ,审美却在达到道德自由的手段与人性完善自由的目的间摇摆 ,他的美学思想呈现出矛盾性。这一方面与席勒的个人气质有关 ,又与现代美学自身的特点有关。席勒对法国大革命的美学反思 ,实际上是一种审美现代性意义上的思考。

The formation of Schiler Aesthetics, growing up involved in modern linguistic surrounding, shared in the nutrition of the Age of Enlightenment. Schiler's aesthetics obtained liberty osmosis during the period of being long for freedom and being after personality development. The eruption of French Great Revolution in 1789 gave the change of Schiler's idea. He eventually chose aesthetics expecting to reharmonize the devised humanity with the method of aesthetic education. But when Schiler wanted to realize his liberal ideal aesthetics, however, oscillated between the measurement of moral liberty and the aim of the plenishment of humanity freedom. His thoughts about aesthetics appeared paradox. The upper aspect has something not only with Schiler's personality but with the characters of modern aesthetics itself. Schiler's reflection in aesthetics on French Great Revolution is actually the thought in the sense of aesthetics modernity.
