摘要
提出假设一:对自然界和艺术进行美的认知与敏锐感受,可以导致人们在人类社会生活中对道德美的认知,这一假设没有实验研究法来证明.是从理性推理上进行探究的;提出假设二:道德美的认知可以导致道德情感,特别是体验“崇高”的道德情感可以导致道德行动的倾向(忠实于社会道德行为规范),这一假设被近来出现的一些研究证据给以支持。提议设计一些课程和指导来强调道德美的例证,并且鼓励学生们去体验道德情感,特别是“崇高”的情感。在感知自然界、艺术和人类的美的方面,重点是强调“多样性中的统一性”原则的作用。
This paper contains the hypothesis that eneournging sensitivity to and recognition of beauty in the natural world and in art may be a developmental stepping-stone to recognizing moral beauty in the human social world.However,there is historical evidence that simply becoming sensitive to and knowledgeable about beauty is not sufficient to cause moral action.It may be,that besides knowledge of beauty,motivat- ing moral emotions,elicited by moral beauty,are necessary to bridge the gap between the knowledge of beauty and moral action.Therefore,a second hypothesis in this paper is that recognizing moral beauty leads to moral emotions,and that,specifically,experiencing the moral emotion of“elevation”leads to moral (prosocial) action tendencies.And,indeed,there are initial research findings regarding the moral emotions indicating that this is true (Haidt,2003;Algoe&Haidt,2004).Consequently,in this paper it will be advocated that we design curricula and instruction to emphasize exemplification of moral beauty, and to encourage students to feel the moral emotions,particularly the emotion of“elevation.”Emphasis will be placed on the role of the principle of unity-in-diversity in regard to perceiving beauty in the natural world,in art,and in human beings,due to its central role in morality and spirituality.
