摘要: 蔡元培提出“以美育代宗教说”是要在宗教精神阙如而儒家礼乐法度业已崩解的现代中国文化场域中,以美育为手段实施国民信仰的重建。审美作为一种精神形式的特殊性和现代中国的社会政治语境使信仰的审美化建构表现出在世俗性与超越性之间徘徊的张力特质,而最终结果往往以牺牲信仰的超越精神为代价,这是与知识分子纠缠于中国与西方、传统与现代的文化现代性心境紧密关联的。

Abstract: Via his theory of "Aesthetic Education as Substitute for Religion," Cai Yuanpei intended to reconstruct the national belief through aesthetic education in a cultural context where the religious spirit was non-existent and the Confucian rites-music institutions had long collapsed. The uniqueness of aesthetics as mental activities and the socio-political context of modern China determine the tension between the secularity and the transcendence in the aesthetic construction of belief, which often results in the sacrifice of the transcendental spirit. This is closely linked with the state of mind of the intellectuals entangled between China and the west, the traditional and the modern.
