Features: Professor Zong wrote relatively little throughout his life, and A Stroll Through Aesthetics nearly compiles all his essential aesthetic essays. It is also the only aesthetic work published during his lifetime. First published in 1981, this reissue, in addition to adding several photographs and correcting some typos, largely preserves the original form. For such a master rooted in traditional culture, brimming with artistic spirit and poetic sensibility, deeply embodying the essence of Chinese aesthetics, and his soft footsteps as he strolled—perhaps it is increasingly difficult to recreate in the roar of ever-powerful modern machinery. However, how can we retain the poetic touch of humanity and the aspiration of life in an increasingly alienated world? Isn't this a global issue that modern people should focus on? And A Stroll Through Aesthetics can indeed offer us enlightenment in this regard.
