The History of Western Aesthetics is Zhu Guangqian's most important work and the first work of China scholars. It is of pioneering academic value and represents the level of China's study of western aesthetic thoughts. The book consists of a preface and three parts, the first part, from ancient Greece and Rome to the Renaissance, the second part, 17, 18 century and the Enlightenment; The third part, from the end of 18 to the beginning of the 20th century, finally makes a special study on four key aesthetic issues in the book. This book's choice of the main representative figures in the main schools is based on its representativeness and far-reaching influence. It is a recognized classic authority, which can explain the clues of historical development and has positive significance, so it is enough for reference. When commenting on every aesthetician in detail, we should first introduce the background and ideological origin of the times, then analyze and evaluate their specific aesthetic views and sum up their gains and losses.

Three Books on Aesthetics is a monograph by Mr. Li Zehou, who comprehensively and systematically expounded his aesthetic thoughts. A Course of Beauty gives a macroscopic view of China's art and literature for thousands of years. Chinese aesthetics generally describes the contradictions and problems that need to be solved in the long historical roots of China traditional aesthetics with Confucianism as the main body. From the perspective of "natural culture", Four Lectures on Aesthetics puts forward the prospect of the connection between discourse and subordinate destiny. These three books, with their unique insights, guide readers into the magnificent aesthetic hall.

The history of the development of aesthetic ideology in China's ancient and modern aesthetic history usually refers to the history of the development and change of aesthetic consciousness in China history.

The History of Beauty is divided into ten chapters, and each chapter comments on the artistic spirit of an important period or the development of an art category. It is not a work of art history in a general sense. Its focus is not on the detailed appreciation of specific works of art, but on organically linking aesthetics, art and the whole historical process with the aesthetic view of anthropological ontology, revealing the functions and influences of various social factors on aesthetics and art, and making a general analysis and explanation of the development of China's classical literature and art.

Hegel's aesthetics has three characteristics in structure: first, from the definition of beauty, beauty is the perceptual manifestation of ideas. Concept establishes the core of beauty, and sensibility distinguishes it from other forms of concepts, thus explaining all phenomena of beauty. Second, there is a hierarchy of ideas in perception, which is consistent with the evolutionary history of the universe. Inorganic matter is the lowest level of perception, art is the highest level of perception, and beauty has a unified definition. Art is the highest and most typical form of beauty. It is enough for aesthetics to study art. There are seven categories of art, but there are five typical categories: architecture, sculpture, painting, music and poetry (poetry includes epic, lyric and drama). Only by studying these five arts can aesthetics obtain the universal law about beauty. From the aesthetic point of view, the five arts can be divided into three types: symbolic (architecture), classical (sculpture) and romantic (painting, music and poetry). These three aesthetic types contain all the objects of beauty. As long as you master the essence of beauty, five major arts and three major types, you will master the beauty of the universe.
