精神：审美理念的灵魂,美感生成的必要条件——对康德“精神”的思考

摘要

Kant believed that the beauty of artistic output depends on its geist.Geist is the vitality of artistic output,which continues endlessly.Geist is the soul of Esthetical idea and depends on the generation of aesthetic feeling.Geist is the ontological dynamic factor which can cause aesthetic activity to become free game between imagination and understanding.Then geist can self-surpass and self-perfect in ultimate pursuit of creation,transcendence and freedom.Therefore,in literary and artistic activities,we should stick to the geist of work.%康德认为,艺术作品是否美取决于其是否有精神。精神就是指艺术品的那种自由的富有创造性的生生不息的生命力及其表现力,它是审美理念的灵魂,是美感生成的必要条件,是促使审美进入想象力和知性的自由游戏的本源性动力因素。而且,精神可以在对创造、超越与自由的终极追求中实现自我提升、自我完善。所以,我们要在审美活动中坚守作品的超越精神。
