20世纪中后期中国美学中的本质论

Essentialism in Chinese Aesthetics in Mid-and late-20th Century

中国当代美学存在着一种严重的本质论倾向,即20世纪中期唯物认识论的美学本质论;80年代实践美学的历史理性论的美学本质论;90年代“后实践美学”超理性的美学本质论。这3种美学本质论都对中国美学的历史进程做出了重要的理论贡献,但也存在着不可忽视的局限性。

There exists a very serious inclination of essentialism in contemporary Chinese aesthetics, i.e. the aesthetic essentiality of the materialist epistemology of mid-20-th century, the historical rationality of practical aesthetics of the eighties in the century and the aesthetic essentiality of sur-rationality of post-practical aesthetics in the nineties of the same century The three theories have made important theoretical contributions to the historical progression of Chinese aesthetics, but on the other hand, have their limitations which can be neglected in no case.
