中西方悲剧意识与悲剧精神之比较

作为广义的悲剧来说，它蕴涵了悲剧意识和悲剧精神。但中西方不同的文化基础、哲学观念，造就了不同的悲剧意识和悲剧精神。文章分析和比较中西方悲剧意识、悲剧精神之大不同及其原因。认为中国悲剧意识内在于儒家的“入世”思想中，佛家和道家的“出世”思想消解了悲剧意识，导致了悲剧精神的缺乏。西方悲剧意识的哲学基础源于主客二分的柏拉图“理念说”，因此在与世界的抗争中表现出崇高的悲剧精神。

A Comparison of Tragedy Consciousness and Tragedy Spirit between China and West

Tragedy includes tragedy consciousness and tragedy spirit in a broad sense.Differences in cultural backgrounds and philosophical views between east and west bring on different tragedy consciousness and spirit.The essay analyzes why and where China and West are different in tragedy consciousness and spirit.It considers that Chinese tragedy consciousness deriving from Confucian idea of going into the society,was cleared up by Buddhist and Taoist idea of renouncing the world,which consequently leads to the lack of tragedy spirit.However,western tragedy consciousness rooted from Plato's doctrine of absolute ideas displays lofty tragedy spirit through struggling with the world.
