Abstract

Since the New Era, the question about human being has become the centre in the contemporary aesthetics, but the excessive attention for human being resulted in a long absence of nature in aesthetic study. In the paper,I want to say that the traditional nature has lost its inherent aesthetic attribute because of the excessive humanization, and has become a sensory form for the people. In the background, when we admit the nature's life attribute, look upon nature's beauty as life pattern's beauty and take the ecological value as the first value of nature, we will prevent humanistic aesthetics from degeneration which character is humankind central. At last,it will be possible to begin an equal dialogue between human being and nature.
