German poet and philosopher Friedrich Schiller’s famous text on art, politics, and society
“The artist is certainly the child of his age, but all the worse for him if he is at the same time its pupil, even worse its minion.”
One of the most profound works of German philosophy, Friedrich Schiller’s On the Aesthetic Education of Man examines politics, revolution, and the history of ideas in order argue that art should have a greater role in shaping society. Deeply disillusioned with the course of the French Revolution, Schiller expressed his complaints in a series of letters to a patron, an impassioned attempt to drag mankind upward from failure to greatness by placing ideas of aesthetic education at the heart of the human experience: “Our era has actually taken both wrong turnings, and has fallen prey to coarseness on the one path, lethargy and perversity on the other. Having strayed along both paths, it is beauty that can lead [us] back.”
One of Germany’s greatest political statements from a time of revolutionary change, Schiller’s arguments are as arresting, challenging, and inspiring today as when they were first written.

“現代人是分裂的、殘缺的、不完整的、自我敵對的;馬剋思稱之為‘異化’,弗洛伊德稱之為‘壓抑’。古老的和諧狀態消失瞭,人們渴望新的完整。” ——卡爾維諾《我們的祖先》 席勒在《審美教育書簡》中,對現代人的分裂問題做瞭一番探討,他認為現代人的分裂與國傢形式有著密...
評分《審美教育書簡》 這樣一來,原因既不在事物之中,那麼,在人的心靈裏肯定存在著某種東西,這種東西阻礙接受真理,不管真理如何明亮地照耀著,這種東西阻礙承認真理,不管真理多麼生動地令人信服。一位古代的智者已經感受到瞭這一點,這個道理就隱含在意味深長的錶述之中:sape...
評分歲月流逝,但有些閱讀體驗會在你的生命中留下不可磨滅的印記。 記得那時纔十八九歲,剛進大學,在那滿懷憧憬而又懵懂彷徨的青春歲月裏,開始思考起人生的價值和方嚮。有三本書對自己今後的思想發展産生瞭深遠的影響 —— 馬剋思的《1844年經濟學哲學手稿》,席勒的《審美教育...
評分*漢文係作業(狗屁不通文章生成器而且還有藉鑒彆罵我求求惹) 席勒在《論樸素的詩和感傷的詩》中提齣創作的兩種方法:樸素的、感傷的。席勒認為所謂樸素,是指淳樸的自然狀態,是人與自然作為統一整體的狀態。這種錶述在亞裏士多德《詩學》中體現為“悲劇是對一個嚴肅、完整、...
評分劍和刷 ————席勒和魯迅 近讀席勒《審美教育書簡》(北京大學齣版社1985版 馮至/範大燦譯),此書由27封信組成,是寫給資助他的丹麥奧古斯騰堡公爵的,但是譯者覺得信裏隻論述瞭“溶解性的美”沒有論述“振奮性的美”,所以又附上瞭他的《論崇高》一文。關於內容我就不說...

評分Recapitulating human history through the microcosm of a person who conceives of form through the aesthetic experience. The upward path from beauty to truth is quick, so is the equation between truth and morality. Barely a plan for politics as is often claimed--zero attention is paid to the transformative effects of institutions upon individuals.
評分古希臘從來就是不成立的自由城邦,其“自由”建立在奴隸製和父權上。因此用古希臘式的論證邏輯來討論現代社會的療愈,無異於討論真空中的球形雞。不過這個版本的introduction非常好,值得看。
