**      美如真理，在隱蔽下無限延展 　　幽玄［ゆうげん］ 　　影響日本當代設計者的陰翳美學** **　　■若人生中追求「光」，首先要認真凝視眼前名為「影」的苦難現實。──安藤忠雄 　　■幽玄是人類得到光明後遺失的美的領域。──深澤直人** 　　時間進入中世，在日本歌人的領略下，佛法、老莊、日本的神道被揉合出一種獨特的美學──幽玄。幽是隱微，玄是奧妙的黑，幽玄原指枯淡之心的深邃境地，諸行無常的人生真義。 　　美從捕捉當下的物哀，走入不生不滅的幽玄。形而上的幽玄，在一首首和歌中發展出豐富的美學意涵，隱蔽、枯寂、妖豔、寫意，最後調和成一種在陰暗中追求的美感，攏之在內，時空無限，內在充實，代表意象之一是秋天氤氳的薄明山林。 　　引進陰影，而不是光。大和民族從陰翳中發現美，又為了美的目的利用陰翳。枯山水、日式庭園、和室、壁龕……昏暗美感的空間中進駐了永恆的閒寂，靜謐、悠遠的幽玄餘情，成為西方人眼中的「東方的神秘」。 　　物哀之後，幽玄在有限中探求無限，再開啟了日後懾服西方的侘寂美學。現代美學家大西克禮旁徵博引，將「物哀、幽玄、寂」定調為日本美學三大關鍵詞。本系列爬梳三大美學的起源、概念，及不同領域的解讀或應用，內容橫越文學、歷史、心理學、哲學，是讀者掌握日本美學的獨家著作。 **　　■**「最古老的事物，都會轉變成最前衛的事物。」──杉本博司 **　　■**「現今不論是建築與城市，人類與語言，都逐漸充斥著半透明的元素，我們在其中可以感受它的新鮮和可能性，而這概念的擴張造就了我們每一天的努力，或許我們之後的大半思惟也都寄託在其中。」──原研哉 本書特色 　　◎日本美學三大關鍵詞：物哀、幽玄、寂。不懂這三個詞，就不可能了解日本。 　　◎無印良品的白、三宅一生的皺摺、安藤忠雄的光之教堂、杉本博司的《海景》……日本建築、攝影、產品設計的原點，啟發當代設計者的美學哲思。   作者介紹 **作者簡介 大西克禮　Yoshinori...
