A Comparison Of Chinese And Western Classical "Harmonious" Aesthetic Ideas

Through the history of the process of aesthetic research,people can basically be divided into several different stages.And in this long history of history,along with the rapid development of science and technology,the country and the increasingly close ties between countries,cultural understanding and mutual penetration are more and more,the meaning of the gradual rise,and even become today's academia One of the popular.Its purpose is to continue to move forward with the positive impact of the current cultural impact of the parties,through comparison,with a new understanding to look at themselves,seize the core culture and value,and effectively stand in the encirclement of the heel.In short,is to take its essence,to its dregs;take hundred of the director,make up its short,vigorous development.In the category of philosophical aesthetics,comparative aesthetics is still not independent.Even so,it does not prevent scholars from different cultures,different nations,and different countries from listing and conducting research and discussion.By comparison,scholars can awaken from the new theoretical system,recognize their own original inevitable limitations,and use new knowledge to re-understand the original theoretical paradigm,and finally to a new realm.Whether in our country or in the West,philosophers are very fond of using Chinese and Western aesthetics to compare with each other.Western ancient Greek aesthetic researchers have a perception of beauty:in fact,the essence of beauty and the essence of art is roughly the same,that is the form.In view of the emergence of each doctrine and its background in which the background is closely related,so explore the classical can be found in the harmonious content is very rich.This includes people and nature,things with me,reproduction and performance as well as sensibility and rationality of the various harmony,and each of which is worthy of our category to explore and think.Here,this article will choose through the perspective of perceptual and rational relations,the harmony placed in the Chinese classical aesthetics and Western classical aesthetics under the background,to compare,explore and speculation.Hoping to escape from the traditional single theoretical system,with a new perspective to understand the profound implication and rational dialectical development of the complex,in order to obtain new insights.This paper is divided into four parts.In the first part,the conceptual elaboration of the important group of binary opposition contradictions and rationality is discussed.First,from the perspective of semantics to explain what is emotional and what is rational.Obviously,the perceptions and rationalities discussed here in the critique and development of empiricism and rationalism are not only accomplished by the semantic interpretation of "Ci Hai" And then put the sensibility and rationality in the context of philosophical thinking to further in-depth conceptual discussion.In the second part,the contradiction between the sensibility and reason of harmony is placed in the period of Western classicalism.Which mainly selected the Plato and the German classical period of the aestheticists as a representative,to this development process of superficial analysis and discussion.And thus try to find some regular existence in order to carry out a deeper study.The third part discusses the concept of harmony in Chinese classical aesthetics.China's classical aesthetics system,most of the philosophers will emotional experience and rational spirit on the same day on the bench,to ensure the balance between the two.China's traditional culture and Western culture have a big difference.This is different from the ancient Chinese literati or scholars in the exploration of the time,the pursuit is not rational,layers of progressive logical thinking dialectical,on the contrary more is the pursuit of things I forget the realm.The fourth part discusses the commonness and the difference of the harmonious view in Chinese and western classical aesthetics.From the macroscopic point of view,the aesthetic characteristics of the German classical period are distinct from the traditional Chinese aesthetic thought.On the one hand,both on the body that the need to grasp the objective and objective unity.On the other hand both of the ideological also stressed the role of harmony.But because of many cultural background differences,can not help but also have their own unique characteristics.Then this article from the social and historical background,way of thinking,language structure and other aspects to start,to try some of the comparison.This article is based on the relationship between perceptual and rational,to Western classical aesthetics and traditional Chinese aesthetics in the "harmony" aesthetics to compare,is to be able to use a broader perspective and a deeper level to understand harmony.Living in the present era,we can deeply understand how important is harmony.Only in a certain sense to achieve emotional and rational balance and unity,we can be multi-faceted harmony.On the other hand,in addition to hope to solve the current multi-faceted harmony problem,but also to use a comprehensive thinking and vision of their own country's history and culture,which has been a better development.China is now experiencing not only the impact of the economy,more cultural impact.At this time there are some scholars began to worry about the future of China's traditional culture.In this one,China's traditional culture will encounter difficulties in this situation is inevitable.But this crisis is not necessarily a turning point.This requires our thinkers of today's society not only to actively develop and promote our classic cultural ideas,but also learn more,learn more about the Western countries,the excellent culture and spirit.Only their own horizons open,can be in the new height to re-comprehensive view of the problem.
