关于生态美学的思考

美学是研究人对天地人三才和万事万物的观感体验而产生的美感愉悦之情,环境和景观是生态系统的最主要的感性显现,这种感性显现如何影响人类的心灵,正需要美学来回答。从美学的角度研究生态系统不仅是可能的,而且是必要的。生态美学不是研究人与生物、环境的伦理关系,而是研究其审美关系;环境和景观是生态系统的感性外观,是生态美的主要表现;生态美学的哲学出发点应是本体存在论,而不是主客二分的认识论。

Thoughts of Ecological Aesthetics

Aesthetics is the study of the feelings that emerge in people's impression and experience of god, nature, people and everything in the world. The environment and landscape are the main perceptual appearance of the ecosystem. How does this kind of perceptual appearance influence human soul? It is aesthetics that can answer this question. It is not only possible, but also essential, to study the ecosystem in terms of aesthetics. Ecological aesthetics does not study the ethical relationship of people and living thing and environment. Instead, it studies their aesthetic relationship; the environment and landscape are the perceptual appearances of the ecosystem and they are the critical expression of ecological beauty; the philosophical starting point of ecological aesthetics should be ontology rather than the epistemology of binary opposition of subject and object.
