摘　　要：大众文化被认为是现代工业化社会的特殊产物,但作为西方文明的延续形态,也自然有其根源,在柏拉图的著作中就可见其端倪。柏拉图对艺术的批判,不仅是从其产生的原理上而言的,实际上也是针对着艺术在一定时期所表现出的一种特殊形态,即大众化,并对此提出了严厉的抨击,指出其种种危害。这种大众化虽非产生于工业化社会,但也可称为工业化社会大众文化的一种原生态,柏拉图的批评也可称为今天大众文化批评的先声,从中我们也可获得认识大众文化的一种历史性的维度。Mass culture is regarded as a special production of modern industrial society; however,as a continuous configuration of western civilization, it has its own root which can be found in Plato＇ s works. Not only aimed at its outcome principles, but also at the special form that art presented during a certain period of time, i. e. popularization, Plato gave his criticisms to art, pointing out its various harms. This popularization, though not produced in the industrial society, can be regarded as a primitive form of it. Plato＇ s criticism is the first sign of today＇ s criticism to mass culture, from which a historical dimensionality of mass culture can be achieved.
