| The confucianism represented by Confucius is the mainstream  of the Chinese culture. "Transcendence" is the most obvious feature of Confucius' aesthetic thinking . It's well known that Confucius  always pursued to the perfect spirit and realization of the life valure : such as " pay attention to practise kindness and to satisfy code", "be  pleased in poverty and delight in knowledge", "to enjoy life and not afraid of death" and " always make continuous progress" , etc. From the individual care to humanitarian care and then to the cosmo care, there is full of aesthetic transcendence. Titled with "on the transcen-dence of the Confucius' aesthetic idea", the article tries to interpreta-te the Confucius' aesthetic thinking from the modern perspective,according to my level of knowledge and comprehension. Speaking my thought, stating my opinion and clarifying my pullze, the aim is to explain that Confucius' aesthetic idea is a kind of idea with trans-cendence. It can be safely infered that Confucius' transcendence ex-actly is aesthetic transcendence and Confucius' existence is aesthetic  existence. His whole aesthetic discouse offers modern people with a  poetic living.The article is divided into three chapters. Awarness of human  nature-kindness,fulfillment of peasonlity-happyness,comprehend  of the life-life and death. From these three respects, the first chapter of  the article discusses that transcendence is the aesthetic living style  of Confucius'. According to the Confucius' life course, the second chapter analyzes Confucius' transcendent rode:from "moralistic state"  to" cosmo state".The third chapter is to reveal the reason of  Confuciu-s' aesthetic transcendence, from "sense of worriness" and spirit of  "loftiness". |
