课程名称:现代性与后现代性(第一部分) 课程概述: 本课程探讨了“现代”这一思想在18世纪末欧洲哲学和文学中的发展,以及现代(或进步、时尚)如何成为理解和评估文化变迁的关键标准。我们目前还处于现代性之中,还是已经超越至后现代? 课程大纲: 1. **课程页面** - 描述:“现代与后现代第一部分”涵盖了欧洲历史、文学和哲学的全学期课程的前半部分。课程从伊曼纽尔·康德和让-雅克·卢梭开始,到弗里德里希·尼采和夏尔·波德莱尔结束,并快速回顾了他们创作时的绘画。尽管在最后一周出现了后现代主义的主题,但现代主义如何转变为后现代主义将是课程第二部分的核心讨论。 2. **哲学、现代性与知识历史** - 描述:哲学为何与现代性相关?通过阅读让-雅克·卢梭和伊曼纽尔·康德,我们考察哲学作为对现代性和进步的反思。 3. **什么是启蒙?** - 描述:利用卢梭的《不平等的起源》进行研究,探讨知识追求与不平等政治之间的关系。 4. **从启蒙到革命** - 描述:本部分重点关注卡尔·马克思,从思想探讨转向对异化、阶级斗争和革命的对抗。 5. **艺术为艺术的现代主义** - 描述:我们阅读福楼拜的《包法利夫人》,反映在19世纪中叶革命失败后的常规、愚蠢与艺术关系。 6. **重新想象世界** - 描述:我们将查尔斯·达尔文的伟大成就置于英国启蒙传统的背景下,重新想象一个没有变革目标的世界。 7. **从斗争到强度** - 描述:通过对夏尔·波德莱尔和弗里德里希·尼采的考察,我们聚焦于一种对强度的审美拥抱,而非对“真实”的追寻。 8. **绘画** - 描述:快速回顾先进绘画如何向画布表面的考虑转变,远离对世界最真实表现的追求。 该课程将为学生提供对现代和后现代思想的深入理解,帮助他们审视文化变迁中的哲学与艺术关系。

Description: “The Modern and the Postmodern Part I” covers the first half of a full semester course on European history, literature and philosophy. We begin with Immanuel Kant and Jean Jacques Rousseau and conclude with Friedrich Nietzsche and Charles Baudelaire and a very quick look at painting at the time they wrote. Although in the final week themes of postmodernism begin to emerge, a discussion of how modernism becomes postmodernism is at the heart of Part II of this course.

Description:We situate Charles Darwin’s great achievement in the context of the English Enlightenment traditions and reimaging the world without a goal for change.

Description:A Quick Survey of how advanced painting moved toward a consideration of the surface of the canvas and away from a quest for the most realistic representation of the world.
This course examines how the idea of "the modern" develops at the end of the 18th century in European philosophy and literature, and how being modern (or progressive, or hip) became one of the crucial criteria for understanding and evaluating cultural change. Are we still in modernity, or have we moved beyond the modern to the postmodern?
