文艺不是审美意识形态

上世纪80年代，一部分学者提出了文艺的“审美意识形态”论，其实，文艺不是意识形态。因为意识形态是指带有阶级自觉的体系化的意识或思想，而文艺作品并不总是具有阶级自觉的，更不是什么思想体系。文艺在本质上是一种审美感情，只是带有意识形成性。

Literature and Art are not Aesthetic Ideology

In 1980s a part of scholars put forward the theory about "aesthetic ideology". In fact, literature and art are not ideology, because ideology refers to the idea or thought with the conscious system of class, but the literature and art works do not always have such idea or thought, still more are not what thinking system. Essentially, they are a kind of aesthetic feeling. They only have ideological forming character.
