Research About Musical Education Value Reform Under The View Of Body Philosophy

With the rapid development of global consumer culture,science and technology and the turn of body philosophy under the context of post-modern philosophy,"Body",the existing object easy to be omitted,has attracted eyeballs from more and more people and entered public discourse.If philosophy intends to indeed enter the "living world",it must pay attention to the body phenomenon of contemporary human beings and reconsider the relationships under the new philosophy context between thinking and existence,body and mind,form and spirit,subject and object,life and death,similarity and difference and so on.Presently,the musical education practical philosophy is just in the ascendant.With the push of practice logic,the musical education philosophy also starts to turn its attention on"Body",corresponding to the transition of philosophy from "ideology" to "body".Theoretically based on the body philosophy,this thesis deeply discusses the reform in musical education values,which is structured via the sequence of "theory retrospect—problem analysis—value reform—practice conception",containing four main parts subsequently.The first part is about theory retrospect.The body philosophy has developed profoundly both in Chinese and Western philosophy history.Speaking of western relationship between body and mind,they are antagonistic to each other since the ancient Greek era of "spirit controls body";later on,they exist dualistically and interdepend while body is still oppressed by spirit and can't get rid of existence in the object field;thereafter,there comes the evolution of material body in the unitary structure of post-modern philosophy.Compared with western philosophy,Chinese philosophy is in a different social and historical environment and its body-mind relationship follows the development trace from emphasizing"body" to restraining "body".Music is the reflection of human beings per se,i.e.,music is what we give it.The musical education process is to create musical experience via learners' body,not via music itself.This indicates the inner correlation between the body philosophy and musical education.Based on the body nature of human being,music is a kind of body property of body experience and musical education.The modern musical education philosophy develops from "aesthetic paradigm" to "practice paradigm",which was created with the development of social economy,cultural background and educational notion.Some contemporary musical education philosophists blend the body attribute of human being in musical education and establishes three main musical pedagogies based on "body participation".These exploration provides new references for the infiltration of the body philosophy into musical education philosophy,also provides theoretical background and knowledge framework for the practical problems existing in Chinese musical education.The second part is focused on problem analysis.It takes the development veins of Chinese musical education as the entry point and investigates the history of our musical education since end of Qing dynasty,covering several stages including the sprouting of music education in modern schools,the emerging and development of "School Music",the music education from the May 4th Movement to the founding of the PRC and the music education till now.This part puts focus on two basic characteristics of Chinese music education,that is,"centered on aesthetics" and "emphasized on technique and knowledge",which cause music education only to pursue skill,technique and knowledge and become a kind of mechanic exercise,meanwhile make music lose its inner spirit and soul.Under the era of global social and cultural transition,our music education faces severe crisis and predicament.In detail,"Body" is lost in music education,which makes it burdensome and omits the liberation of student body and creative experience;music education is separated from life,which overshadows music humanistic connotation and spiritual value,abstracts the richness of life and evaporates the creativity of human beings,music education thus becomes a monotonous world only containing musical symbols constituted by mathematics;the rights of educates are overlooked,which makes students lost their say in music education.These predicament and crisis are an indispensable stage in its historical development process.This thesis takes analysis and introspection surrounding two important reasons,that is,"musical education philosophy has deviation" and "musical education lags behind".The third part refers to value reform.Under the visual threshold of body philosophy,the subject of musical education value will return to human body in practice.This thesis points out that the subject identity of body is not only the cognitive subject of music education,but also the practice subject of it.At the same time,it is also the value subject and aesthetic subject of music education.In music education,human body and its active object(music)are a coexisting and symbiotic process.It emphasizes that the recognition and practice of music education are united within body practice while body practice is a main recognizing and practicing approach in music education.The author points out that,in the pursuit of musical education value relationship of "experiencing music subtlety",the music education process establishes and expands the natural,social and spiritual attributes of "body" and "music" through interpersonal contact and contact between teachers and students,realizes the harmonious coexistence of individuality and sociality of "body" and "music",finally establishes the musical education value of"body-mind harmony",guides the establishment and expansion,cultivation and inheritance of human body musicality,integrates with other kinds of education in the harmony and utility of human body's natural,social and spiritual attributes and advances the comprehensive body-mind development jointly.The fourth part discusses practice conception.Under the guidance of the body philosophical views and new musical education value,it is necessary to reconstruct the framework of musical education and teaching meeting the needs of the era and put forward the detailed implementation ideas in aspects of construction and class teaching of music courses.The author thinks that,firstly,the characteristics of music courses and teaching under the visual threshold of the body philosophy should be understood from the education and teaching about the subject's body characteristic and meaning;secondly,music courses and teaching should be constructed on the essential characteristic of human body,objective courses and teaching objectives,courses and teaching content,teaching methods and appraisal should take body as the basic point,embody body's peculiarity and development requirement,stimulate the inherent body factors of music education,excavate the guiding significance and operability of the body philosophy in music courses and teaching;finally,the reform emphasis of music courses and teaching should be placed on improving teachers' qualities.Only teachers having the education value of creativity,balanced knowledge structure and comprehensive innovative competences can seize the core conception of music education in the turn of the "body philosophy",conduct exquisite and proper body construction toward music courses and teaching and realize the body turning of music education practically.Taking the body philosophy as the guidance,this thesis reconstructs the curriculum view about music education,conducts music course design,meanwhile demonstrates the practical value of the theoretical construction of this topic from the specific music teaching operation perspectives of emphasizing body feeling,establishing the context of music learning and advocating team collaboration.
