Abstract:
The thinking of construction of Chinese contemporary life aesthetics can be summarized as the “aestheticization of life” and “living in an aesthetic way” .The former refers to the spread of the beauty of form in the field of daily life, while the latter refers to living in the world in an aesthetic way.Both of these approaches are well-equipped in modern Chinese aesthetics.When modern aesthetics scholars introduced Western aesthetics, they reformed the timeliness of aesthetic activities, the compatibility of aesthetic psychology and the spatiality of aesthetic objects, and created the tradition of life aesthetics.At the same time, Chinese modern aesthetics has an aesthetic interpretation of traditional Confucianism’s Xinxing cultivation and Liyue education.These constitute the historical context and modern origin of contemporary life aesthetics in the aspects of the transformation of western learning and interpretation of Chinese thought.
