中国美学的固有范畴导源于周秦时代。汉魏以后的美学范畴,只是对先秦时代流传下来的美学范畴从各个方面进行具体展开。到了近代,由于西方哲学、美学的概念范畴被输入进来,逐渐流行,于是就出现了中、西美学范畴共存并列的局面,中国美学范畴也比以前更加丰富了。在西方思想文化与中国思想文化融合的过程中,都免不了裹进许多未经消化东西。对于既丰富又庞杂的美学范畴,王国维进行了系统化的尝试。 The inherent category of Chinese aesthetics leads from the Zhou Qin era. After the Han and Wei aesthetics category, only the aesthetic category handed down from Pre-Qin era to carry out concrete aspects from all aspects. In the modern era, due to the importation and popularization of the conceptual categories of western philosophy and aesthetics, there appeared the coexistence of Chinese and Western aesthetics, and the category of Chinese aesthetics was more abundant than before. In the course of the integration of Western ideology and culture with Chinese ideology and culture, many things that have not been digested are inevitable. For a rich and complex aesthetic category, Wang Guowei conducted a systematic attempt.
