Abstract/Summary:
This period from Baumgarten to Hegel can be regarded as one of the most creative stages in the history of aesthetics,and Schiller is undoubtedly one of the representatives of this historical period.His works in literature,aesthetics and other fields have many classic works,and many of his thoughts have far-reaching influence on later generations including German Romanticism and idealism.It is necessary to understand Schiller’s thought in depth.On the one hand,we should have enough understanding of the complex Kantian philosophy;on the other hand,we must have a certain understanding of the whole philosophical and aesthetic background of the period of enlightenment.This has led to a very long period of time,often because of his literary glaring status,and the difficult reading of understanding,thus preconceptions that despite some aesthetic works,Schiller is at best a better "amateur" in philosophy,or just a fan of Kantian philosophy.The reason for this situation is actually Schiller’s solution in his own thinking,that is,with the increasing specialization of academic branches,At the same time of specialization,it also limits people’s view of things from the perspective of holistic and higher level relevance.On the issue of humanity,Schiller,a philosopher,has been pursuing a truly free and complete human nature since his youth.Schiller’s philosophy can be called an "impulse philosophy".In the "On the Aesthetic Education of Man",Schiller proposed that human nature has three kinds of impulsiveness: "emotional impulse","form impulse" and "game impulse".As a symbol of the integrity of human nature,"game impulse" is a combination of "emotional impulse" and "form impulse".It plays a close role in the two yuan antagonism of the body and heart,freedom and necessity,sensibility and reason caused by the reason of enlightenment.This article tries to regard the complete humanity as the purpose of Schiller’s whole thought development,in order to further analyze its aesthetic thought.Under the traction of this core problem,the significance and characteristics ofSchiller’s aesthetic thought were combed,such as the importance of his early thought to "the philosophy of love",and Schiller was not only an agreement on Kant’s philosophy.He was always thinking with his own problems and surpassed Kant in aesthetics,and Schiller’s theory of game provided a lot of inspiration for the later philosophers.
