Resumo: | Susan Sontag’s aesthetic thought - New Sensibility, is an accurate summary of her understandings and accurate grasp on the era of visual culture, which is also an effective way of appreciating them. New sensibility is one of the sensibility concepts put forward by Sontag at the early stage. Its definition can be summarized as an ability of aesthetic perception of the experiences in this new era. The ability is to appreciate visual arts, appeal to pure sensibility and devote to changing modern people’s consciousness and sensibility. However, New Sensibility overemphasizes sensory or perceptual experiences while ignoring the moral dimension, which leads to its inherent defects and cannot be ignored. It can be seen from the inconsistent critical comments of Sontag on the Riefenstahl’s artistic works. Susan Sontag. New Sensibility. Orientation. reflection |

The ability is to appreciate visual arts, appeal to pure sensibility and devote to changing modern people’s consciousness and sensibility. However, New Sensibility overemphasizes sensory or perceptual experiences while ignoring the moral dimension, which leads to its inherent defects and cannot be ignored. It can be seen from the inconsistent critical comments of Sontag on the Riefenstahl’s artistic works. Susan Sontag. New Sensibility. Orientation. reflectionThis paper uses the research method of historical context to place Sontag’s “New Sensibility” in the historical context in which “the demise of art” was prevalent, and puts forward that Sontag’s “New Sensibility” is the sensibility in line with the needs of that time by denying “the demise of art” and affirming the dominant position of visual art. Its definition can be summarized as an ability of aesthetic perception of arts. It appeals to pure sensibility to appreciate visual arts, and devotes to changing modern people’s consciousness and sensibility. At the same time, by comparing “New Sensibility” with “Camp Sensibility”, proposed by Sontag, and “new sensibility”, proposed by Marcuse, this paper points out that the main connotation of “New Sensibility” is to emphasize form,neglect content and suspend morality. However, “New Sensibility”, which overemphasizes perceptual experience and ignores moral dimension, has its inherent defects, which cannot be ignored. Therefore, this paper finally takes Sontag’s critical practice of Riefenstahl as an example to specifically explain the defects of “New Sensibility” and reflect on it. More than half a century after Sontag’s “New Criticism”, the orientation and reflection of it is conducive to re-facing the significance and value of it under the background of further development of science and technology and more diversified artistic styles at contemporary era.Faculdade de Filosofia e Ciências2023-01-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/htmlapplication/x-mobipocket-ebookapplication/epub+ziphttps://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/transformacao/article/view/13298TRANS/FORM/AÇÃO: Revista de Filosofia da Unesp; v. 46 n. 01 (2023): Janeiro-Março/2023; 251-268TRANS/FORM/AÇÃO: Revista de Filosofia; Vol. 46 No. 01 (2023): January-March/2023; 251-268TRANS/FORM/AÇÃO: Revista de Filosofia; Vol. 46 Núm. 01 (2023): Janeiro-Março/2023; 251-268TRANS/FORM/AÇÃO: Revista de Filosofia; Vol. 46 No. 01 (2023): Janeiro-Março/2023; 251-268TRANS/FORM/AÇÃO: Revista de Filosofia; V. 46 N. 01 (2023): Janeiro-Março/2023; 251-2681980-539X0101-3173reponame:Trans/Form/Ação (Online)instname:Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)instacron:UNESPenghttps://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/transformacao/article/view/13298/10183https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/transformacao/article/view/13298/10184https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/transformacao/article/view/13298/11330https://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/transformacao/article/view/13298/11331Copyright (c) 2023 TRANS/FORM/AÇÃO: Revista de Filosofiahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessChen, Xingjun2023-04-27T13:20:38Zoai:ojs.revistas.marilia.unesp.br:article/13298Revistahttps://revistas.marilia.unesp.br/index.php/transformacao/PUBhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.phptransformacao@marilia.unesp.br1980-539X0101-3173opendoar:2023-04-27T13:20:38Trans/Form/Ação (Online) - Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)false |
