本論文思考的出發點來自於，我們切身所面臨的一種處境，即：如你我生命中的諸種創傷。然而，整體人類，無論是個體或是團體，面臨此種如災難般與暴力所導致的困境，是否存有克服甚至是超越可能。這種情況的出現，人與自然的關聯是核心。不過，在二十世紀西方哲學的發展中，對於人與自然關係的認定與斷裂式的思考模式，所顯現出來的卻是自然概念被邊緣化的傾向。以至於在思考如何面對人類與自然生命之間的危機，及為其調整付出努力時，似乎難以從中獲得其支援。東方哲學思想或許能對此難題提供出可憑藉的哲學奧源，賦予實際解題參考，並以實際生活中的具體實踐作為佐證。 本論文透過對《莊子》中「自然」思想的重新詮釋，放在其自我生命與自我修養的哲學性脈絡下，並採取一種自我轉化的觀點，簡言之即是：以主體自身的感受與體驗作為出發點，讓任生命面對自己能對世界萬物有所承擔，並以自身行動作為中介，嵌結哲學化的生活方式與感性修養。貫穿全文的關鍵議題在於：哲學作為一種生活方式，及其相關的美學修養與工夫，有無可能面對「陷入暴力」（幽黯力量）的問題。本論文透過三個面相：個人與歷史創傷經驗，《莊子》「自然」思想重構，以及藝術家或哲學家其技術、技藝與道之能所不能的超越性來試圖回答這問題，並旨在透過對《莊子》「自然」思想的重新詮釋及其轉向自然的思考，來反思人類與自然生命之間的危機，並試著調解其間的緊張與困境，讓創傷治癒的不可能得以轉化並朝向一種生命創造的可能性，以回應現當代生命與生存的議題。;Any kinds of trauma truly appears in our life brings the difficult distress we hard to face, is the starting point of this dissertation. How a person, a group or whole human beings can or cannot solve the puzzles arise from trauma constitute my main concern. In the development of 20th century Western philosophy, cognition and separated thinking mode of the relation between human and nature seems to make the concept of nature be marginalized. Therefore, it seems hard to get assistance in them if we expect to think about the puzzle between human and nature, and try to solve it. Maybe Eastern philosophy can provide another reliable philosophical aid, and prove itself is workable by real practices in actual life. Through re-explanation of Zhuang-Tze’s thought of the nature, and focus on his philosophical context about self- life and self-cultivation, Zhuang-Tze seem to give us a viewpoint of self-transformation. In a word, a kind of view that based on one’s sense and self experience as a starting-point creates any possible links to the nature, and take self-practice as a medium relates philosophical life and aesthetic cultivation. This dissertation has three main discussing aspects: self-trauma and historical trauma, re-explanation of Zhuang-Tze’s thought of the nature, and transcendence of Art or Dao. From these aspects, whether the distress be brought by trauma can be solved by re-explanation of Zhuang-Tze’s thought of the nature, then be transformed as a kind of creation in human life, may provide a possible way to respond modern issue about life and existence.
