Explanation to experience is an important part to Dewey's philosophy. It is right to say that his philosophy is based on it. So if we want to understand his philosophy we must understand his means of "experience". Experience is equal to sensation .And it is junior stage of ration. But Dewey didn't think so. He rebuilt the experience. He thought experience did not equal with sensation. But it is a process of interaction of man and conversation and consummating. That is its means is same to life world. But in this process Aesthetic is its motive. Consummation experience is aesthetic experience. There is a kind of quest for aesthetics in original experience. It is a quality of man as a man. Moreover aesthetic is not end of experience. It is its new start. In this way, Dewey broke out the strain of contradiction dualism. Experience developed into survivalism from epistemology. The quality of experience represents the tragedy quality of survival condition of man profoundly.
