情本体——实践美学的个体生存论维度

自马克思开始,哲学已从认识论转向了实践论,此后,又转向了生存论。哲学的作用不在于探讨世界的本质,而在于探讨人生和命运问题。从“人活着”这一基本事实出发,向“人为什么活”,“活得怎样”延伸。“人活着”是哲学的出发点。“为什么活”,涉及人生的意义和价值问题,是伦理学问题。而“活得怎样”,则是美学问题。哲学的追问最后走向了美学,而历史的发展也同样走向了美学。发掘工具本体的诗情画意,实现自由而诗意地生存成为历史向今天的人们提出的现实任务。在工具本体所造成的物质力量之外,建设一种价值论、意义论的人生本体,已成为当务之急。这种人生本体,在信仰崩塌、道德形而上学同样归于失败的当今之世,只能是对人的普泛之爱和对自然的感恩、敬畏、尊敬与欣赏。

Ontology of Emotion: A Dimension of Individual Existence in Aesthetics of Praxis

Since Karl Marx, philosophy has transferred from epistemology to praxis, and then to existence. The function of philosophy is not at probing the essence of the world, but human life and fate. The final enquiry of philosophy leads to aesthetics, and the historical development also leads to aesthetics. It is a realistic task put up to people today that the poetics of instrumental ontology is to be developed, and a free and poetic being is to be realized. The urgent need is to build ontology of value and significance in human life.
