【副题名】大众文化视野中“身体美学”的反思与重构

【摘要】 身体在前现代哲学史上地位尴尬,是意识哲学压抑与全力提防的对象。在现代哲学当中,这一状况也基本得以延续。后现代哲学兴盛以来,身体逐渐成为一个话语中心,备受关注。但在消费社会,身体自身的处境并没有得到改善,甚至成为主要的异化对象。在美学当中,对身体感性形式的关注与美学学科的确立相伴随,也是美学反抗与抵制身体异化的重要策源地。大众文化的兴起,是“身体美学”出场的现实语境。自舒斯特曼提出“身体美学”概念,并试图将其确立为一个新学科以来,身体在美学中的位置与意义形态发生了较大的变化。“身体美学”具有浓厚的实用主义哲学倾向。这一方面使得它可以较为有效地介入一些大众文化现象,另一方面,也显示了它过于乐观的理论诉求。尤其在对待身体的异化问题上,“身体美学”留下了不少理论遗憾。结合语境与既有理论资源,我们将“身体美学”定位为大众文化视阈中的身体审美实践。大众文化亦是一种消费文化。在消费语境中,“身体美学”的意义维度受到极大的削减。因消费文化的合围,阶级、性别、民族与劳动等维度的身体,已被尽可能地遮蔽与忽视。本文试图切入“身体美学”的几种主要实践形式,它们涉及到大众文化中身体的物化、反抗与诱惑等诸类形态。在消费语境中,“身体美学”的这些实践形式都或多或少地受到消费主义的侵蚀。这也表明“身体美学”必然遭遇困境。“身体美学”的危机在于其意义的局部性。回归总体性显然可能恢复身体应有的复杂内涵乃至抵抗能量。不过,在后现代的文化背景中,这一诉求无疑带有浓厚的乌托邦色彩。更多还原

【Abstract】 Body, which occupied an awkward position in the pre-modern philosophy history, was repressed and guarded against by Philosophy of Consciousness. Since the rise of post-modern philosophy, body has gradually turned into a discursive centre, attracting a lot of attention. However, instead of improving its situation in consumer society, body is changed into a major alienated object.In Aesthetics, the perceptual form of body has been accompanied by the establishment of the subject of Aesthetics. However, it is also an important resource of opposing and resisting the alienation of body for Aesthetics. The rising of mass culture is the realistic context for the emergence of "Body Aesthetics". The position of body and its signifying form has experienced major transformations since the conception of "Body Aesthetics" was put forward by Shusterman, who exerted great efforts in establishing it as a new subject. The strong pragmatistic philosophical tendency of this conception, on one hand, facilitates its involving in some mass cultural phenomena; on the other hand, it shows its over-optimistic theoretical appeal. "Body Aesthetics" left behind many theoretical regrets, especially in dealing with the problem of the alienation of body.Mass culture is a kind of consumer culture. In the context of consumer society, the significance of "Body Aesthetics" is greatly reduced, for the body is shaded and neglected by the envelopment of consumer culture in the perspective of class, gender, nation and labor etc. This thesis tries to explicate the significance of "Body Aesthetics" from some important aspects, including the materialization in mass culture, the resistance and temptation of the body etc. In the context of consumer society, these meaning forms of "Body Aesthetics" are more or less impaired by consumerism, which implies the inevitable dilemma. The crisis of "Body Aesthetics" lies in its partiality of meaning. Apparently a return to the totality could restore the complex implication and the resisting energy of body. However, this appeal has a strong Utopian significance in the post-modern cultural background.更多还原
