The Bloomsbury Research Handbook of Chinese Aesthetics and Philosophy of Art
Bloomsbury Academic (Verlag)
978-1-350-12976-4 (ISBN)
Beginning in early China (1st millennium BCE), it traces the Chinese aesthetic tradition, exploring the import of the term aesthetics into Chinese thought via Japan around the end of the 19th century. It looks back to early practices of art and craftsmanship, showing how the history of Chinese thought provides a multitude of artefacts and texts that give rise to a wide range of aesthetic creations and notions. Introducing various perspectives on traditional arts in China, including painting, ceramics, calligraphy, poetry, music and theatre, it explores those aesthetic traditions not included in “canonic” art forms, such as martial arts, rock gardening, and ritual performance.
Written by Chinese, European, and American theoreticians and practitioners, this authoritative research resource enhances contemporary aesthetics by revealing the possibilities of a Chinese philosophy of art.
Marcello Ghilardi is Associate Professor of Aesthetics in the Department of Philosophy, Sociology, Education and Applied Psychology at the University of Padova, Italy. Hans-Georg Moeller is Professor of Philosophy at the Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies at the University of Macau in Macau SAR, China.
