深入研究中国传统艺术理论的根本途径之一 ,是从思维方式入手来探讨其文化渊源。中国传统思维方式 ,从其总的思维倾向来看 ,具有内向性的特征。中国思想史上的儒、道、佛三家 ,其哲学思想无一不体现出典型的内向思维特征。中国传统思维方式的内向性特征 ,直接导源于中国传统哲学的“天人合一”思想 ,而最终根源还是中国传统的阴阳学说。内向思维对中国传统艺术理论产生了广泛而深刻的影响 ,铸成了中国传统艺术理论鲜明的主体精神。

Introversive thinking in relation to the subject spirit of traditional Chinese artistic theory

One of the essential ways for an in-depth investigation into the traditional Chinese artistic theory is by conducting researches on the cultural sources from the angle of thinking mode,which is,so to speak,characterized by introversive thinking as its general tendency in the philosophical thoughts typical of either Confucianism or Taoism or Buddhism.The introversive nature of traditional Chinese thinking mode is directly originated from the traditional Chinese philosophical thought of "the way of Heaven at unity with the course of Man's affairs",with the traditional Chinese theory of Yin and Yang as its ultimate source.Introversive thinking has exerted profound and far-reaching influences upon traditional Chinese artistic theory,hence its clear-cut subject spirit.
