When we say "beauty", what are we talking about?

●After "Wabi-Sabi: Japanese Aesthetics Basics for Designers and Lifestylers", the author Leonardo. Another classic interpretation of aesthetic meaning by Keren!

●The author Ke Ren breaks the theoretical framework of discussing aesthetics in the past and tries to use concise words to divide aesthetics into ten definitions to build a more understandable aesthetic scene for everyone.

"Aesthetics" is mostly translated as "aesthetics" in Chinese. This word originated from the Greek word "aisthetikos", which originally meant "sensory feeling and cognition". Therefore, to this day, "aesthetics" is often called "sensory" in Europe, and it mainly studies the essence and nature of "beauty". Meaning is also an important topic in philosophical discussions.

Leona. When Keren wrote "Wabi-Sabi: The Foundation of Japanese Aesthetics for Designers and Lifestylers" and "Return to Wabi-Sabi: Aesthetic Thinking for Japanese Lifestyle Lovers", he constantly tried to clarify an important aspect of Japanese culture. Aesthetics, I hope this hitherto vague and abstract concept can be re-understood by the world. But in Leonardo. In the writing process of Keren's pursuit and exploration, he was sometimes vague and unclear, and even found himself falling into the decadent feeling of self-praising, and therefore disgusted with self-praising.

This prompted him to think repeatedly about the definition of "aesthetics". First, I kept combing through the aesthetics of philosophy until I realized the importance of "constructing an aesthetics that is easier to understand" - after all, only in this way can we more accurately reflect the intersection between our brains and the world. So Leona. Keren pulled away from those self-centered reflections, went back and picked out any self-adulation that might appear to be exaggerated, and tried to organize the multifaceted definition of aesthetics again... Finally, he completed this book.

This book is light and easy to read, written by Leo Na. Keren's consistently concise and precise tone allows readers to immerse themselves in the "more subtle aspects" of his thoughts and experience these ten interpretations of aesthetics, with clear and concrete feelings: the psychology of aesthetics in analysis, imagination, and concepts. Mechanism─How does our consciousness flow when we face "beauty"?

At the end of the book, through a narrative (added before printing because the idea of ​​subverting aesthetics came up), in a coherent context, one can read the ways in which aesthetics expresses various definitions, and then gain a deeper and clearer understanding. To see these many "aesthetics" and this huge spiritual realm.

What does all this have to do with you and me?

Leona. Keren hopes that through this book, which is like a small dictionary of aesthetics, with concise definitions, it can help creators, aesthetic enthusiasts, and those who want to challenge aesthetics to think constructively when facing aesthetics-related life things or work. , discuss the current phenomena and experiences of aesthetics.

In fact, "aesthetics" is not heavy or difficult, but is so close to our daily dialogue, life, and cognition.
