Features: In recent years, the aesthetic thought of Mr. Zong Baihua has attracted widespread attention from the academic community. In Mr. Zong's aesthetics, many contradictions that trouble the contemporary aesthetic field, such as the conflict between classical and modern, Western and Eastern, theoretical thinking and life experience, have been well resolved. Perhaps this is the reason for the enduring charm of Mr. Zong's aesthetics. This book understands Zong Baihua's aesthetics within the context of the life-philosophy trend that emerged in the 1930s and 1940s of this century, revealing the changes in Zong Baihua's understanding of the essence of life and the inevitability of his shift from life philosophy to aesthetics.
