文化诗学视域下王国维"境界说"之再思考

王国维＂境界说＂是中国近代文艺美学中一个重要概念,也是一个歧义重生的概念。把＂境界＂抽象地置入西方理论资源或机械地利用传统诗学来加以读解都无助其概念内涵的清理。我们既要注意＂境界＂作为审美理想论审美价值判断的意义,又不可忽视特定的历史文化语境对＂境界＂概念所指的建构。这也符合利用文化诗学阐释王国维＂境界说＂方法论的要求与旨归。

Rethinking Wang Guo-wei's Realm Theory in the Perspective of Cultural Poetics

Wang Guo-wei’s Realm Theory is an important concept in Chinese modern literary aesthetics. However, it is also a theory which has incurred lots of controversies. Neither putting the concept into the western aesthetic theory system nor interpreting it according to the traditional poetics is of any help for the clarifying of the connotations of the concept. We need not only to realize the significance of treating＂realm＂as the aesthetic ideal of aesthetic value judgments, but to emphasize the role of the specific historical and cultural context in constructing the connotation of＂realm＂as well, thereby conforming to the tenet of interpreting Realm Theory on the basis ofcultural poetics.
