Features: Humanistic culture is a culture of self-reflection, and humanism embodies a high sense of cultural mission. The humanistic spirit points to a human ideal system centered on truth, goodness, and beauty, which is the core essence of "what makes a person human." Humanistic education is the "usefulness of the useless," as its purpose is to promote the complete independence and self-perfection of humans as life and spiritual subjects, engaging in in-depth and extensive discussions on the grand themes of "how to be a person" and "what kind of person to be." The status of humanistic education, in its ultimate sense, reflects the position of freedom in our hearts, the position of the meaning of life in life, and the position of humans in the universe. This book is a follow-up project to the "University Humanistic Reader," with the same purpose of disseminating the universal values of human civilization development and exploring the rich connotations of the humanistic spirit, refreshing the of humanistic culture, and inspiring college students to "become mature in spirit." The realm of "humanistic renewal" is the pursuit of this book and the aspiration of the Chinese people at present. The burden is heavy, and the journey is long. We hope that the wise will help to achieve it.
