春秋時代美學思想形成初探 - 以 『易傳』, 『考工記』, 『樂記』 爲中心

Abstract

This study started with the basic question of how aesthetics thoughts were formed during the Spring and Autumn period in China. The Spring and Autumn period was the era of upheaval in China, and it was also the period that Jejabaekga which influenced Oriental society tremendously emerged. During this period, they established aesthetical thoughts grounded on the West’s view of the world and differentiated perspective, and they took human ‘Huinoaerak (happiness, anger, sorrow and pleasure)’ as their philosophical background. Considering this point, the researcher tried to explore the aesthetic view of the world during the Spring and Autumn period to examine Oriental philosophy and contribute to follow-up research taking the borders of sciences as its axis positively. To attain the goal, the study looked into 『Yizhuan』 as its ground material to examine Cheoninhapil thoughts and investigated the rhetorical ways of thinking found in it. Next, the researcher examined aesthetic approaches about Eumyanghwasaeng and consciousness of life and then analyzed how they were associated with aesthetical thoughts found in 『Kaogongji』. Also, by examining aesthetical thoughts in the Spring and Autumn period found in 『Leji』, the researcher attempted to approach academically ancestors’ acquisition of consciousness about how human true nature was organized. This study has its academic significance as a qualitative research that focuses on the specific situation of the Spring and Autumn period and analyzes the birth of aesthetical thoughts. In this process, we will be able to find out what we have lost living in this age that we only focus on what is useful for life and what can be converted to added value and also figure out what can be the scale with which we can see the ultimate meaning of life.
