In company with the continuously deep research of the aesthetic culture in China , there's also an aesthetic transformation of culture go through to classical aesthetics research of history. This paper took this kind of turns as the opportunity, attempt to transit the systems of the select the officer as an angle of an interaction relation between systems and aesthetic prevailing custom changes, put in order some heterogeneous factors that in the development course of ancient aesthetic culture. The paper's based on the following views:First of all, judge a person by his moral character was the overall principle in the system of ancient official selecting from Han dynasty .This has offered institutionalized guarantee for establishment of the major ideology status of Confucianism. Ancient official exercised not only the local jurisdiction in the name of imperial power, but also undertook the missions of culture propagating , smoothing the folk custom, advocating the education culture. The system of official selecting is very important to the social value orientation of successive dynasties, so, the system of the ancient selection, besides could realize choosing the managerial talent's, also took the function of the leading social value orientation. An interaction relationship between select officer systems and ancient aesthetic prevailing custom changes was set up on these foundations.Secondly, the ancient selecting officer system has to break the relatively inherited and the closed society since Han Dynasty. It has caused a unique social stratum incorporating scholar, bureaucrat, literati into an organic whole in a broad sense —scholar-bureaucrat, they are between the official and the people . Corresponding to the selecting the officer systems' changes, they became the platform of official ideology and non-governmental cultural exchanges. They were the major of forming the ancient cultural traditions, and the main carrier that the aesthetic culture developed changes too.Moreover, with the implementation of the examination system, the system of recommending of concerning the moral integrity and unifying was replaced by concerning the fair examination system gradually. Relying mainly on written examination skills system fetched inclination of people obvious day by day to made promotion of consciousness by written in the whole society more obviously. The beauty of sound and structure of Chinese character could be reflected in the examination system with physique. It was literature and calligraphy that it displayed on the artistic design. They are the most representative ancient Chineseart class too. Therefore, there are very closed relationship between the forming and development of ancient artistic types and the selecting officer systems.In a word, it was doable to study the changes of ancient aesthetic culture from the angle between the relationship between the system of official selecting and aesthetic prevailing custom changes.This method is going to impulse the study in ancient aesthetics culture in the following way: firstly, it will offer an new study view, the paper was different from the other papers. It was neither the object change history mainly concerning about the material describe of beauty, nor the mentality change history mainly concerning about the spiritual describe of aesthetics. The author started just from the relation between the change of system culture and the change of aesthetic fashion , aimed that to find out the headstream of ancient aesthetic culture in China; secondly, the author pay attention to the whole grasp to the history, gave some new reasonable proof to some controversial problems, such as weather there were some relation between selecting officer system and the aesthetic culture fashion, the relation of "poem and Fu" standard of official selecting and the prosperous of tang-poet, the argue about "ba gu"'s estimate, and so on. Thirdly, on the research approach, the author advocated the integrity of demonstration analysis and value neutrality, used the historical facts as proof, avoided the tendency of discuss principles in the aesthetics study field. The paper just took an describing position to offer a new method to ancient aesthetic culture.This paper took the interaction between the selecting officers system and the ancient aesthetic culture as the main clue, detailedly the relation between the changes in the selecting officers system since Han's "cha ju" rule to Qing's "Ke Ju"rule and the transmit of aesthetic fashion. There were five chapters in this paper. Their main views are just as followings:The first chapter is mainly discusses their relation in Han Dynasty. It's not only built the system of official selecting, but also the ancient aesthetics culture. The military exploit group grasp the early power of Han Dynasty, so, its aesthetics prevailing fashion aimed at violent and vulgar; in the midterm of Han Dynasty, "Cha Ju" became the mainly system, Confucianism was the official culture . Literature and Confucianism has become mainly social idea. Since then, ancient Chinese aesthetics prevailing fashion has been charged by the utilitarianism aesthetics.The second chapter is the change between the official selecting and the aesthetics culture in "Wei and Jin" Dynasty. In this time, the standard of official selecting changed to person's skill, but not his morality. This method liberated the idea of people in "Wei and Jin" Dynasty, the art including literature and calligraphy, picture, etc, gained good chance to develop. The system of "Jiu Pin Zhong Zheng" protected the noble's previlege to be offical, the neo-Taoism was just arised because this new official selecting system. Furthermore, the idea ofaesthetics was also appeared very mature and formation, the new intellectual founded new aesthetics prevailing fashion. After Sui Dynasty, the skill of literature has became the mainly standard of official selecting system. "Ke Ju" was formed by imperial of Sui.The third chapter is mainly discusses their new relation in Tang Dynasty. Just in this time, the relation between ancient official selecting system and aesthetics value has been systematic and been persisting by later history. This gave great influence on Chinese ancient culture. The idea of Confucianism aesthetics has been official thoroughly in one thousand Chinese history. The standard of official selecting was regularly formed in "poem and Fu", its means select official by their skill of literature or calligraphy, but Confucianism was also the main standard of official selecting and aesthetics culture. So, the Tang Dynasty was the most important phase of Chinese official selecting and ancient aesthetics culture.The last two chapter introduces their new changes in Song Dynasty ,Yuan Dynasty, Ming Dynasty and Qing Dynasty, because the standard and formation of the "Ke Ju" has been formed in Song Dynasty, and the other dynasties mainly used this system. The government has been pay more and more attention to the function of "Ke Ju" to charge the social value, prevent its people from thinking freely. So, until the end of "Ke Ju", the aesthetics prevailing fashion of these phases appeared to be restore ancient ways, but short of bringing forth new ideas.Generally speaking, there were closely or loosely relation between the change in official selecting system and the great change in aesthetic culture fashion since Han Dynasty. When the governor administered the society peace and tranquility, the aesthetic fashion would took on group characteristics utility aesthetics hold the main station. When the royalty declined, the aesthetics fashion was easy to be ego incline, aesthetics incline; when the official selecting system became open and free, the aesthetics fashion was easy to be took on the consolidation of ego and group, the consolidation of rhythm and vigour of style, the essence inside was positive and rousing.When the official selecting system became disorder and inflexible,the aesthetics fashion was easy to be took on the division of rhythm and vigour of style,the essence inside was introvision and passive.
