Enlightenment and Uncivilizedness in Aesthetics : Toward Reconstruction of History of Aesthetics From a Contemporary Viewpoint

在申请时，本研究项目设置了以下三个任务：1。现代美学史上“启蒙”谱系的追溯阐释“野蛮人”在现代美学中的作用。调查“启蒙”元素和“不文明”元素之间冲突的各个方面，第一个任务是在《美学评论》（2004）和《人文评论》（2006）上发表的两篇文章中解决的，这两篇文章从“启蒙”的角度解释了康德和鲁默尔在现代美学史上所扮演的角色。下一个任务是在《人文评论》（2003）的文章中进行的；并在论文中发表在第15届国际美学大会（2003）的会议记录中；华宝文本的翻译；以及Wittkower（2005）的文章。对于最后一个任务，我在北美和欧洲国家的博物馆和展览（以及双年展）中进行了很多有趣的研究，收集了很多有趣的资料。此外，在2004年巴西里约热内卢举行的第16届美学大会上交换了各种有价值的信息和意见，成功地完成了这一任务。在最终的研究报告中包含了八篇基于这些研究结果的文章。这些文章也将在网页上向公众开放。我想在未来的一段时间里继续研究这个主题。
