This book examines aesthetic issues based on humanities principles and creates a theory of Chinese aesthetics from a global perspective by applying Chinas traditional and cultural history to a Western theoretical framework. In particular, this book emphasizes the shared features of Confucianism, Daoism, and Buddhism, namely the unity of heaven and men, unity of nature and society, and the materialization of human feelings and humanization of material things. It also highlights the dominant role of humans in the aesthetic relationship between human and object, while placing imagery in a focal position. .

Includes bibliographical references.
