Abstract

Abstract:Claims are often made that, in the late eighteenth century or early nineteenth century, artists attempted to take over certain functions from religion, particularly the function of redeeming the world. But what exactly it might mean for art to redeem the world is rarely treated with any precision. In this essay, I show that Wordsworth's idea of a poetic theodicy offers an unusually clear and appealing form of the redemptive view of art, which, when properly understood, is less vulnerable to standard criticisms than is commonly thought.
华兹华斯与诗歌神正论
摘要:在18世纪末或19世纪初,人们经常声称,艺术家试图取代宗教的某些功能,特别是救赎世界的功能。但是,艺术拯救世界究竟意味着什么,却很少得到精确的论述。在这篇文章中,我展示了华兹华斯关于诗歌神正论的观点提供了一种不同寻常的清晰和吸引人的艺术救赎观形式,当正确理解时,它不像通常认为的那样容易受到标准批评。

期刊介绍: For more than a quarter century, Philosophy and Literature has explored the dialogue between literary and philosophical studies. The journal offers a constant source of fresh, stimulating ideas in the aesthetics of literature, theory of criticism, philosophical interpretation of literature, and literary treatment of philosophy. Philosophy and Literature challenges the cant and pretensions of academic priesthoods by publishing an assortment of lively, wide-ranging essays, notes, and reviews that are written in clear, jargon-free prose. In his regular column, editor Denis Dutton targets the fashions and inanities of contemporary intellectual life.
