Between Eastern and Western Cultures to Build a Global Life Aesthetics

Currently,Life Aestheticshas become the world's newest aesthetic ideas,the basic way of international aesthetic academia to expand the boundaries of aesthetics is the same.Wolfgang Welsch,a German esthetician,appeals that aesthetic back to daily life,and calls his aesthetics beyond aesthetics,which means beyond the arts center. At the 18 th World Aesthetics Assembly in Poland,when Welsch repeated his topic aesthetics beyond aesthetics,he met Arnold Berleant,the US environmental esthetician,who said no to him. But in fact,Berleant's requirement of that aesthetics towards the environment and Welsch's proposition of that aesthetics back to are actually the same thing.However,Life Aesthetics is not like philosophy of art or environmental aesthetics,which was presented by Western aestheticians and became the dominant aesthetic thoughts. East—West esthetician almost simultaneously proposed the life aestheticconcept,and traditional Chinese aesthetics is Life Aestheticsin root. Liu Yuedi invited Curtis Carter,the former president of International Aesthetics Association,to edit the English corpus,Life Aesthetics: East and West,committed to promote the progress of aesthetics on a global scale,through the interaction between the east and west. Liu Yuedi pointed out that aesthetic was jointly proposed by East and West,it has two kinds of philosophizing resources of East and West,but also facing challenges that need positive response. Zhao Qiang further pointed out that as to the aesthetic of the late Ming period,the key was the formation of the idea of that to enjoy the happiness,to build artistic,elegant situations,to enhance mundane daily happiness.
