Aesthetic Principle and the Extending of Research Field of Aesthetic Anthropology

Aesthetic principles such as aesthetic universality,aesthetic preference,aesthetic standard,aesthetic relativity and aesthetic context are explored by researchers from different perspectives.There exists a dialectical relationship between diversity and identity of aesthetic psychology.Researchers should examine the aesthetic preference of different cultures in the cultural context,not only attaching importance to associative significance related to formalism,but also paying attention to the universal connections between form and meaning collectively shared by the members of a culture,thereby extending the academic horizon of the aesthetic anthropology.
