The action of literature belongs to the particular spiritual function, the literary works are spiritual outcomes of the authors, therefore the subjectival nature is regarded as an important issue by the theory domain. The theory of life aesthetics that springs up in 1990 carries on researching into the theory of the subjectival nature with special angle of view, which causes great attention by the domain of the aesthetics theory.According to the theory of life aesthetics, the past aesthetics researches approached the subject of beauty in the view of the subjective-objective relation and sought its essence and laws from the understanding of aesthetics activities. The objects and method of previous study are totally wrong and should be changed —from knowledge to life in methodology and from the exploration of the essence of beauty to the study of aesthetic activities. The dissertation consist of three chapters, with about 30,000words.The first chapter is about the theory value of life aesthetics, and it includes three aspects: Firstly, it reflects the innovation of the means and angles of view; Secondly, it uplifts the subjectival value; Thirdly, it has realism pertinency and theory edification.The second chapter is discussions on the theory localization of life aesthetics, which manifests the following viewpoints; First of all, it reflects the nonentity of the logical threshold. Furthermore, we go on researching life aesthetics' wrong understanding about the subjectival nature. It mainly consist of the deviation of the individual nature and the sociality, as well as the dissever of the sensibility and the logos. Finally, we discuss the life aesthetics'misapprehension with practical aesthetics, which suggest that we should survey and contemplate the life aesthetics more thoroughly.The third chapter is the contemplation about the life aesthetics. Firstly, we ponder over its explanation on the subjectival nature and emphasize the foundation of the subjectival double nature. In the end. we meditate its future direction, which is the "practice" .In all, the theory of life aesthetics is full of contradictions but poor in theoretical resources. To develop itself, the theory of life aesthetics muse be based on practice, for all the problems of the theory of life aesthetics can only be solved in practice.
