Recovery Of The Lost Emotional World

In the "Outline of Subjective Philosophy:Four", Li Zehou firstly proposed the construction of "Mental Ontology ", particularly the "Emotional Ontology", in which turned his aesthetic vision from history, society and rationality to psychology, individuality, emotion and chance, and clearly raised that what he expected to be his philosophical topic was human philosophy. He eagerly hoped that his research would provide a solution to contemporary Chinese society help modern people work out all kinds of difficulties of Survival Paradox, and look for lifes comfort and destination as well as the lost emotional world. This article attempt to research the "Emotional Ontology".from the folloing steps:The introduction is on overall description of "Emotional Ontology",making an overview of Li Zehou academic thought, and discussing the purpose, the direction, the value and eignificame of "Emotional Ontology" research.Chapter one mainly discusses the origin of "Emotional Ontology" and its key propositions. To relieve the tension between reason and emotion, group and individual in the original system of practical aesthetics, "Emotional Ontology" to meet the needs of times, which was aslo his good assumption of human nature construction. Moreover, the article discusses the three key propositions for construction of "Emotional Ontology", namely, aesthetic feeling theory, natural person theory and accumulation theory.Chapter two expounds in detail the meaning of "Emotional Ontology". The highlighted emotion in "Emotional Ontology" is the core of cultural and psychological structure, accumulated from external and objective real-life. In Li Zehou's system. human emotion is inspived from materiol,but beyond it,and becomes the ultimate spiritual destination of human beife. Li Zehou named it "Ontology"."Emotional Ontology" is virtually no real Ontology,but an Ontology meaning "nothingness", or the Ontology of phenomenon. His interpretation of the timing of emotion broke through the traditional vision of aesthetics. He absorbed the three-dimensional time theory, and made a new breakthrough and combination between time (objective concept) and emotion (subjective experience). However,there are very few researches in the academic field about the timing of "Emotional Ontology".Under such circumstances,this paper focuses on the relationship between emotion and time, hoping to restore a more comprehensive and real "Emotional Ontology."Chapter three is evaluation of the theoretical value and limitations of "Emotional Ontology". First, it researches the internal structure of works of art at three levels: form,image and meaning. Second, the "Four Times of Confucian Say" takes "Emotional Ontology" as its core and makes creative transformation of Confucian culture, as well as how to use the Marxist philosophy deal with the construction of individual survival in the modern and the post-modern society. Third, Li Zehou's recognition on aesthetic education is closely related to the development, and improvement of human nature, as well as the construction of cultural psychological structure, which is discussed little in academe circle. The "Emotional Ontology" theory involves much about Li Zehou's good aesthetic concepts and ideas.But then "Emotional Ontology" does not really enter Li Zehou's old the philosophied and aesthetic, but drift in a disorderly state, and its feasibility is questionable at the operational level.To Take a panoramic view the formation, development and revision of Li Zehou's aesthetic concepts, his efforts and contributions to aesthetic development are admirable. As a philosopher and aesthetician, he deserves admiration and respect for his extensive and profound knowledge as well as his sincere concern about human society.
