主体间性:走出审美现代性的悖谬

以“身体性”为口号的审美现代性 ,秉承了克服理性主义之片面性的传统 ,是现代文化中审美主义的逻辑发展。但其哲学前提仍是理性与感性二元分立的人格模式 ,不外是对主体的“理性—感性”二重组合中审美感性因素的强化和夸大 ,并变本加厉地将后者推向了感官和肉体。相反 ,主体间性理论认为主体与他者、人与世界都处在融汇一体的联系中 ,艺术审美是大型的对话 ,以此吁求社会性的行动与变革。这样 ,就有可能成功走出审美现代性的困境。

Intersubjectivity: Beyond the Paradox of Aesthetic Modernity

The aesthetic modernity, with Bodyness as its appeal, is a logical result of the aestheticism in the modern culture. It inherits the reasonable tradition overcoming the one sided rationalism. But its philosophic premise is still the dual personality, which contrasts sensation with rational and thus falls in the same paradox as the subjectivity. It just emphasizes and enlarges the sensational elements of the subjectivity's dual structure, namely rational and sensation, and puts the latter into a sensuous state. It regards man's sensuous organs as the final existential and ontological basic, and in fact expresses a hopeless consciousness in the individual artistic activity. The theory of intersubjectivity, on the contrary, holds that the subject and the other, the human beings and the world are in a total connection, and the artistic activity equals to a wide scope dialogue through which a social movement could be stirred. In such a way, the paradox of aesthetic modernity may be overcome.
