One traditional thoughts of the Chinese philosophy is combining ideas with acts. That is, one's thoughts go with his practice and experience. The proposition"Literature Is About Human Knowledge", which brought up by Prof Qian, not only concerns literature , but also cares about humankind. Professor Qian regards esthetics, but he attaches more importance to artistic life. Cultivating aesthetic spirit, and having an artistic life, is the start of Prof Qian's aesthetic thought, and also its end-result.Art spirit, the spirit contained in and sublimed from idiographic literature works, focuses on the harmony of man and nature. Facing man's unnatural actuality , we'd better go back to the origin, because humanity is originally harmonious with both exterior and inner nature.Being a natural man means doing what he wants naturally, and thus creating his life. This is the main content of Prof Qian's thoughts of enjoying one's life, and also, it's his own life practice of glorifing the life with art. From literature to life, from study to conduct, Prof Qian attaches great importance to natural temperament. The things deep in art, is just a natural temperament. In my opinion, Prof Qian's main temperament, is peaceful farness, empressement and humility . The basis of these is going along with the nature.This means going back to one's root and promoting his spirit to poetry. The wisdom of knowing the world is spiritual consciousness. It is a kind of thinking that enlightens truth with beauty.Art spirit, gives us an aesthetic life. Its root is based on the joy of natural life, and its high point is the integration of nature and man. |
