Chapter 293: The Meaning of Learning Aesthetics
He always burst out with extra enthusiasm in the class with beautiful girls, he looked at the girl a few more times, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen in the class of the drama for so long, so his mood began to be happy.
Feng Yankai wore jeans and a plaid shirt and walked up to the podium to put the coffee cup away, he thought that he was more foreign, so he didn't like to drink tea like other teachers, so he would bring coffee to class every time.
He first wrote his name on the blackboard, and then said, "Hello everyone, my name is Feng Yankai." My father's surname is Feng, and my mother's surname is Yan, in order to prove that I am a joint honor of the old Feng family and the old Yan family, so my name is Feng Yankai, in fact, I have always been curious about why my father's last word didn't give me a new word. Speaking of which, the classroom was filled with a pleasant laugh for this humorous teacher.
Feng Yankai was very satisfied with this effect and continued: "I have a great mother, and when she was still pregnant with me, she used Mozart, Beethoven's classical music for prenatal education. But it's a pity that the result is not ideal, that is, the child who was born, Yan zhòng's five tones are incomplete, but I love music extremely and have extremely strong expressions like chatter**. So I had to teach music history. I love music, I hope that the process of learning music can bring happiness to every student, I firmly believe that music is not shallow, it is a kind of power. Life is a bitter cup of coffee, and music is the sugar cube. Please remember me, I am Mr. Feng Yankai, who loves to think and love music. Thank you. ”
The electric classroom burst into thunderous applause for such an opening remark, and the students who came to class were all freshmen and sophomores who didn't know much about the teacher's black history, but in his heart, Feng Yankai's teaching level was still quite high, otherwise he wouldn't have tolerated this teacher who was not too good because Feng Yankai had a backstage.
Feng Yankai stood on the podium and opened the lesson plan and said, "Music aesthetics is an indispensable theoretical literacy in music theory, the basis of music understanding, and the construction of profound theories of music. Aesthetics is an experience. It is the spiritual enjoyment that arises when all things in heaven and earth are regarded as a part of oneself, and it is a kind of super-utilitarian spiritual pleasure. Philosophy makes people live with peace of mind, and aesthetics makes people live with peace of mind and happiness. So don't underestimate the role of this subject in your study of music, it's more important than you can imagine. ”
Feng Yankai glanced at the girl sitting in the middle of the classroom, and her enthusiasm for lecturing began to rise. As a lecturer with real talent and real learning, he has always thought that he is a model of literary and elegant talent, otherwise he could not be fooled into a few female students who had been dead set on him, he closed the lesson plan and walked out of the podium and said: "Today's first lesson, we will not study the book "Ancient Greek Music Aesthetics", I will first discuss with you what aesthetics is? What is the meaning of studying aesthetics for us? I will first ask a classmate to get up and share his views. ”
Feng Yankai walked to the middle of the corridor, pointed to the most beautiful girl sitting in the middle of the classroom, and said, "This classmate, you introduce yourself first, and I am here to talk about your opinion." ”
The eye-catching beauty sitting in the middle is none other than Pei Yanchen, the school girl who is in the play. Every student who was called up to answer the question subconsciously felt why it was me, Pei Yanchen also froze for a moment, and then just stood up and attracted the attention of the entire electric classroom, and everyone in the huge classroom at this moment had a legitimate reason to look at her carefully.
Pei Yanchen has long been accustomed to such a focused gaze, and said slowly, "My name is Pei Yanchen, I am a sophomore violin department, I think that studying aesthetics can improve aesthetics, can meet people's spiritual needs, obtain a kind of joy and spiritual realm improvement, promote the perfection of human nature, and enhance personal cultivation." In order to pursue a more meaningful, more valuable, and more interesting life, they can also improve their own theoretical cultivation, improve their own way of thinking and knowledge structure, specifically, through guò learning to cultivate their interest and ability to do pure theoretical thinking, that is, to study and cultivate their interest and ability to think theoretically about life, for life, for existence, for truth, goodness and beauty, and other fundamental issues, so that they can obtain a kind of life wisdom in addition to acquiring knowledge of various specific disciplines. ”
Feng Yankai took the lead in applauding and said with a smile: "It seems that Pei Yanchen has studied the textbook in advance. Very well said. At this time, Feng Yankai had to notice the three 501 people sitting on the table in the front row of Pei Yanchen, who were sleeping soundly, usually he didn't bother to pay attention to such people, but today he had to take care of it under his nose, so he said, "Although my class is average. But since you have chosen my class, please study carefully, so don't sleep in the front row!"
Of the four people in a dormitory, only Luo Kai was still listening to the class, he hurriedly pushed Cheng Xiaoyu next to him to wake up, Cheng Xiaoyu was in a good dream, he didn't know what was going on, he stood up in a daze and said, "What's the matter?
Pei Yanchen looked at the somewhat familiar figure in front of him, and felt that the road was really narrow. I didn't expect to sit so close to him.
Cheng Xiaoyu didn't know that Pei Yanchen was sitting behind him, touching the back of his head, and finding that he was out of appearance again, he just didn't know what to do, and he was embarrassed to sit or stand.
Feng Yankai glanced at Cheng Xiaoyu, who was not amazing, and said, "Since they have all stood up, you can also tell us your opinion!" For a student like Cheng Xiaoyu, Feng Yankai naturally has no interest in knowing the name.
Cheng Xiaoyu didn't know what question Feng Yankai was asking, Luo Kai could only whisper next to him, "The meaning of learning aesthetics!"
Cheng Xiaoyu was calm, he really didn't know much about aesthetics, so he could only believe in Ma Youyi and said, "Then I'll tell you my opinion! Don't be surprised if you make a mistake." First of all, do people need to learn aesthetics to improve aesthetics? I don't think so, from the root of the word, the word aesthetics is translated from Greek to Japanese and then into Chinese, and the original meaning is "feeling". Everyone can feel beauty, which is what Kant said in his four opportunities. But why does Gombrich say that aesthetics need to be cultivated? Because in the long history of mankind, there has been an artificial distinction between beauty. For example, academic art was almost abandoned after the development of Impressionism, but it was called the pinnacle of human history before the development of Impressionism. But what exactly determines people's aesthetics? It may be collective identity and the underlying moral force. This also illustrates the non-objectivity of aesthetics. In the final analysis, if you can listen to Wagner for six hours, everyone will think you are awesome, and if you listen to Ding Xiaoxiao's "Above the Moonlight" every day, everyone will think that you are **. Therefore, there is no need to deliberately improve the aesthetics, naturally improve it, and improve it according to your social interactions, etc., otherwise you stand in front of a group of people who don't even know who Tchaikovsky is, and talk about how beautiful "Chai Xiaoxie" is, that's not called pretending, that's called being stupid. Of course, people who have their own aesthetics are more likely to find pure pleasure in life, and will form their own unique spiritual world to resist the boredom and boredom of real life, so that they will find that a person's world can also be rich and happy."
Cheng Xiaoyu's remarks completely overturned what Pei Yanchen said earlier, it was like saying it to Pei Yanchen, but in fact, Cheng Xiaoyu didn't even hear what Pei Yanchen said clearly, so naturally it wouldn't be intentional.
Pei Yanchen sat in the back and heard Cheng Xiaoyu's words a little unnaturally, she also thought that Cheng Xiaoyu was deliberate, and Jiang Muhan, who was sitting on the side, was even more angry, thinking that Pei Yanchen was helping Cheng Xiaoyu turn over the score regardless of his previous suspicions, and even had the urge to scold Cheng Xiaoyu.
Cheng Xiaoyu's words actually offended Feng Yankai together, but as a teacher, he stood aside, and it can't be said that Cheng Xiaoyu was wrong, after all, Cheng Xiaoyu's point of view can also stand, Feng Yankai asked expressionlessly, "Since you think that studying aesthetics is useless, why did you come to take my elective course?"
Cheng Xiaoyu was silent for a while, and said loudly: "Because I need the grandeur and solemnity of the church to resist the vulgarity, I need the edge and poetry of literature to resist the useless slogans, I need the sentimentality and sorrow of music to resist the decaying emotions, I need the eternity and truth of the statue to resist the pale hypocrisy, I can't imagine living in a world without beauty." ”
