摘要/Abstract

摘要： 本文重点考察“理解艺术作品”意味着什么，并对艺术阐释的范围进行思考，认为“专知”与“艺盲”这两个对立极端之间的艺术阐释空间巨大。本文从晚期维特根斯坦的哲学视角出发，考察阐释范围的缘何而来以及巨大阐释空间为何无法避免。这或许会让一些哲学家吃惊，因为我们一般不指望从维特根斯坦那里获得关于美学本质的清晰陈述。实际上，维特根斯坦花了大量的时间去思考艺术及其理论问题。1949年他曾明言，除了“概念”问题，只有“美学问题”才能“吸引”自己（CV 2006：91e）。然而，维特根斯坦从未对美学问题形成长篇大论且以一持之的反思，其大量观点散见于他的遗作之论文中。本文恰恰系统构建了维特根斯坦关于美学本质问题的许多观点。

Abstract: The article examines the question of what "understanding an art work" means and offers some considerations about the ranges of understanding that we experience in interpretations of art: the vast scope between the contrasting extremes "expert knowledge" on the one hand and "art blindness" on the other. With respect to the philosophy of later Ludwig Wittgenstein it will be shown what these ranges originate from and why they are unavoidable. This may come as a surprise to some philosophers since Wittgenstein usually is not regarded as someone from whom one might expect pronouncements of an aesthetic nature. But in fact Wittgenstein had spent much time considering questions of art and art theory. Indeed in 1949 he even noted that besides "conceptual" questions only "aesthetic questions" could "really grip" him (CV 2006: 91e) . However, he never formulated his reflections on questions of aesthetics in an extended and coherent series of remarks. Rather his observations in this regard are to be found in individual remarks scattered in considerable quantity throughout the papers of his Nachlass. In the paper at hand a certain number of them has been reconstructed systematically.
