“自然”是卢梭美学思想中的核心范畴之一,也是卢梭表达现代性批判思想的一个关键概念。“自然”既表现为与上帝相对立的启蒙现代性,也表现为与现代物质世界相对立的审美现代性。“回归自然”的提出即是试图通过赋予自然以精神内容,重新建立人和自然的情感纽带,从而重塑自然在人们心中的灵性形象。 “Nature ” is one of the core categories in Rousseau’s aesthetic thoughts, and it is also a key concept of Rousseau’s expression of the critique of modernity. “Nature ” is not only manifested in the enlightenment modernity that is opposite to God, but also as the aesthetic modernity that is opposed to the modern material world. The proposition of “Returning to Nature” is trying to reshape the spiritual image of nature in people’s hearts by giving nature its spiritual content and recreating the emotional bond between man and nature.
