Analysis of Aesthetics and Philosophy of Western Geometric Gardens

Differences between Chinese and Western Traditional Gardens in Philosophy and Aesthetics

As far as the philosophical system of culture is concerned, it represents the basic western thoughts rooted in the Euphrates and Tigris rivers, and its people-oriented thought is reflected in the Bible. It says, "God created the world and created human beings in his own image." In other words, man is like God. God left the world to human beings to manage and enjoy, but in fact, human beings are the masters of the world. "So the west emphasizes the power of human beings, and the relationship between man and nature is antagonistic. Man should conquer nature and emphasize the power of man to overcome nature. "(Yang Hongxun, 2006) Therefore, the garden takes architecture as the center and adopts geometry and overall layout." In philosophy, all beauty conforms to the laws of mathematics. "China followed nature from the ancient flood fighting practice. The success of digging mountains and building mountains has led to the formation of a concept of world outlook and cultural master plan, which emphasizes the harmony between man and nature and the fact that scenery can be obtained by man.

Ancient Greek culture is the source of western culture, and ancient Greek philosophy and aesthetic views have had an important impact on western traditional gardens. "Pythagoras school thinks that the origin of all things is number, the principle of number is the principle of all things, and the whole celestial body is a kind of harmony and a kind of number, and puts forward the aesthetic view that beauty is harmony and proportion, while China literature based on the unity of man and nature pays attention to/melts things with me! Compared with Xing's techniques, China's paintings have creative methods inspired by nature from the outside, and there are artistic realms and evaluation criteria between similarity and dissimilarity. " So, God swims with things! Scenes blend! Poetry is the aesthetic standard of gardens.
