Aestheticism applies not only to the field of art,but also to the field of science.Although the value of science “science for science's sake” possesses the ancient source of thoughts,it can also go along with the value of art “art for art's sake”,which constructs a splendid intellectual edifice of science-aestheticism and shows vitality and vigor again on the cornerstone of Oscar Wilde's and Immanuel Kant's theories.Therefore,the two sorts of isolated values which have long existed in the history of human thoughts become commensurable to a certain extent! Here,science-aestheticism has been raised to the height of comprehensive innate concept.The pursuit of scientific truths should be pure;form would determine science;and for science itself,could regain its independent status to lead the age.Under the guidance of Critique of Pure Reason,all these theories and assumptions can withstand scrutiny because the commensurability of science and art in metaphysics and the universality of science-aesthetic values in the fields of science and art has been proved.Under the guidance of Critique of Judgment and Critique of Practical Reason,the skeptics' illusions of the aesthetics and ethics about science-aestheticism have been removed one by one.Therefore,science-aestheticism is a theoretical system with a certain degree of completeness.Proposing and constructing science-aestheticism will have theoretical and practical significance.After all,I cannot answer all the questions of skeptics and some people may continue to be skeptical about this new concept.However,science-aestheticism as an innate concept will continue to exist and to be further studied by later researchers because of her charm.The main part of the dissertation is the first to fourth chapter,which is focus on the following four aspects: First,the stem of science-aestheticism.Where does the concept of science-aestheticism come from? How could science-aestheticism,as a comprehensive congenital concept,be possible? Second,the content of science-aestheticism.What is science-aestheticism? How to understand pure pursuit of scientific exploration? What is the relationship between form and science? Is science independent? Third,the metaphysical foundation of science-aestheticism.How could science-aestheticism be possible? How to prove the commensurability of science and art? Could the innate values be universal? Fourth,Dialecktik of science-aestheticism.How to solve the illusion of science-aestheticism? Can science-aestheticism be replaced by science-instrumentalism? Should criterions of desire and happiness be moral criterions for judging science-aestheticism? Besides the main problem that must be seriously faced in order to complete the theoretical system of science-aestheticism,this article also needs to answer some other questions to supplement the text.For example,how do I put forward the theory of science-aestheticism? What is the significance of science-aestheticism? Is there a theory of "technique-aestheticism" which advocates "technology for technology's sake" ?.etc.For these questions above,this article will discuss in the introduction part,the fifth chapter and sixth chapter.In short,I will do my best to show the reader a complete theoretical system,hoping to expand the territory of known experience of rationality and to give some inspiration to the reader who loves wisdom.
