美感是一种愉快感 Aesthetic Judgment and Pleasure

康德是个伟大的哲学家，也可说是近代美学之父。

他认为美是靠美感来判断的，而美感是一种愉快感。

美感是一种愉快感，看来是很明显的一回事。平时我们看到美好景色，事务，美女，心情当然应该是愉快的。美女当前，多看几眼，当然是因为感觉愉快美好啦。

中国人一向是民以食为天。美者，羊大也。羊大之所以为美，则是因为大而肥的羊好吃的缘故。现在的人把好吃的东西通通都叫做‘美食’了。

What is the relation between the judgment that an object is beautiful and the feeling of pleasure?

Immanuel Kant describes the judgment of beauty as “based on” a feeling of pleasure.

Pleasure seems something obvious and even intimate to us when we see it in someone's smile, posture, or manner and when we can say right off that we are having a good time and enjoying ourselves.

For Kant "enjoyment" is the result when pleasure arises from sensation. But judging something to be "beautiful" has another requirement: sensation must give rise to pleasure by engaging our capacities of reflective contemplation. Judgments of beauty are sensory, emotional, and intellectual all at once for Kant.
