A Study On The Modernity Transition Of "The Original Heart" And Its Connotation Of Aesthetic Education

“The Original Heart” is an important category of chinese aesthetic education spirit,therefore,the in-depth exploration into the modernity transition of “the Original Heart” and its connotation of aesthetic education is not only an echo and continuation of traditional ideology and culture,but also has an important practical value to accomplish the educational goal of “cultivating people with morality” in the new era and to carry forward the chinese aesthetic education spirit.From the perspective of history,the original constructors of chinese modern aesthetics and aesthetic education discourse have a sense of historical mission to reform the national character by explaining the meaning of modern aesthetic education of “the Original Heart”.However,today,the critical period of the social transformation of the great rejuvenation of the chinese nation has been characterized by the overflow of material desires and sensibility.It seems that “people” are getting further and further away from the ideal state of aesthetic education and are also trapped by the new civilization and new economic order created by ourselves.In addition,with the development of globalization and new media technology,the excellent traditional ideology and culture which was not deeply excavated and firmly rebuilt in the past has not played its due role in the national ideological construction.Therefore,in the new historical context,we should attach importance to the contemporary development of chinese aesthetic education spirit,study the traditional moral meaning and modern aesthetic education meaning of “ the Original Heart ”,and use our own culture to solve our own problems.This research is divided into three parts: the first part introduces the traditional moral meaning of “the Original Heart”.Through discussing “Baby” and “Changde”,“the Original Heart” and “the Nature of Spirit”,“the Original Heart” and “the Heart of Heaven and Earth” respectively,in which the thread of historical development is hidden.The chapter mainly explores “Changde ” proposed by Laozi and Zhuangzi,the further expansion about “Heart” by Mencius and the Confucianism,and a large number of methods involving the cultivation of mind and nature.The second part focuses on the late Ming dynasty and Liang Qichao's modern transformation of “the Original Heart”.The Taizhou School of mind learning was developed in the bud of capitalism,and the modernity thoughts such as individuality liberation and affirmation of private desire in the works of Li Zhi and Tang Xianzu are clearlydifferent from the tradition of mind learning of Song and Ming dynasties.However,Liang Qichao was in a special period of replacing the old with the new,and had a strong foundation of Confucian knowledge of mind,his “Wei Xin ” was a continuous hardening of the local tradition of mind,which was also an important part of the transition of modernity.The third part is the focus of this paper,studies the connotation of modern aesthetic education of “the Original Heart ”,with Wang Guowei's genius theory,Zhu Guangqian's game theory,Zhou Zuoren's child-centered thought,Feng Zikai's thought of art life as the main points,is based on the chinese and western thoughts to carry out system analysis.This change from the moral connotation to the aesthetic connotation finally makes the “the Original Heart ”become a proposition with rich modern aesthetic implication,which is of great significance to the development of contemporary society and human beings.
