Husserl's Phenomenology And The Problem Of The Relation Between Aesthetic Subject And Object

The view had already been a common sense in research world, that what led the traditional aesthetics to be lost in a predicment is substancism which had been the philosophical foundation of the traditional aesthetics. Because Husserl's phenomenology had a overturningly critic power to substancism philosophy. It had been regarded to be a important theory to rescue aesthetic out of the "mud pit " of the traditional aesthetics.The article used the intention-constituted theory of Husserl's phenomenology to critic and re-interpret the substancism's essense theory of the traditional aesthetics. The first chapter generally introduced the historical form and effect of the substancism's essense theory of the traditional aesthetics. The Second chapter introduced phenomenological critic to substancism and pointed out the aesthetics research. The third chapter at first introtuced intentionality notion and intention-constituted theory in detail. In them, the static structure of consciousness of " transcendental ego, intentionality, intentional object" showed and the initiative of constitution, that is the dynamic process of "Affaussen" which showed the functional relation between them. This two hands showed the absurdity of the thinking style of subjective-objective distinction of this essense theory. The fouth chapter used phenomenological intention-constituted theory to re-interpret this essense theory. This part discussed the question of how " Objectivity" is constituted if phenomenology regards all things is constituted by a single subject. In fact, the question also is how Husserl diveloped his Solipsism philosophy into intersubjectivity philosophy. According to Phenomenology, "objectivity" is constituted by intersubjectivity. Therefore, it is not the objective "beauty" of " real" object that made all of us sense the universal "beauty", but the intersubjectivity that constituted the objectivity of "beauty".. The traditional aesthetics reversed the cause-effect relation between the objectivity of "beauty" and the universal sensation to "beauty". The fifth chapter atfirst introduced the essense notion of traditional substancism philosophy, and showed its uncompatible contradiction, and then carried on phenomenological reduction to it. Afterwards, the part pointed out that "essense" could be seen through "intuition", which is really not gained through abstract thinking. On the foundation of the view (that essense could be gained through intuition), the article also pointed out the inner-constituted quality and the transcendental transcedent quality of phenomenological "essense" notion. Such we came back the fact of "essense" this chapter tried to use phenomelogical duction theory to accquired a special critic effect as "taking away the firewood from under the cauldren". When criticed the substancism essense theory of the traditional aesthetics. The question what is "essense" also is a central question to the research to the essens of "beauty", in short, only we had cleared up the phenomenological essense notion, would there be a correct dirrection to aesthetics research.
