Abstract

The aesthetic criticism of alienation ecology is Marx's aim in 1844 Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts. In the Manuscript, Marx took alienated labor as the main line to highlight the beauty of the organic interaction between realistic human's sensibility and inorganic body, revealing that the distortion of the aesthetic relationship between human and nature lies in the accumulation of private property, and further pointing out that only through the return of free and conscious labor and the complete abandonment of private property can the natural body be liberated from the cage of irrational alienation. "Poetically inhabiting" in the communist aesthetic kingdom. Marx's critical thought of ecological aesthetics still inspires us how to become a better aesthetic "class subject": In the direction change of the body, we should change from "body slavery" to "body freedom"; In the transformation of world thought, we should change from "anthropocentrism" to "non-anthropocentrism". In the sublimation of ethical intuition, we should change from "hugging nature tightly" to "alienating nature appropriately". In the construction of survival paradigm, from the ecological "I think" to "the real existence".
