Summary: | 碩士 === 華梵大學 === 哲學系碩士班 === 97 === The artistic spirit of the Chinese garden is to bring out the ideals of nature in the eyes of landscape artists. Those artists adopt the scenes of the garden to interpret the artistic conception of poems. The garden with distant mountains and nearby water reveals the philosophy of nature which the classical Chinese artists pursue. The artists learn from the nature and also get the emotional comfort in the nature.
The cultural awareness which is presented in the Chinese garden indicates that the combination of reality and imagination is a kind of living model of humankind. The natural scenes in the Chinese garden enlighten man and evoke his inspiration; moreover, they achieve the harmony between man and nature.
Based on “Yuan Ye” of Ji Cheng, I will focus on how the classical Chinese artists take the aesthetic significance of water in the Chinese garden as the main principle to appreciate the beauty of nature and further to display the vivid and pure existence of natural beauty by transcending the reality in this paper. The thesis contains five chapters and it attempts to discuss the aesthetic significance of water in the Chinese garden according to the artistic essence, aesthetic consciousness, aesthetic form, and humanistic spirit. Chapter one is the introduction. Chapter two is the study of aesthetic consciousness in the Chinese garden from “Yuan Ye” of Ji Cheng. Chapter three is the study in aesthetic significance of water in the Chinese garden from “Yuan Ye” of Ji Cheng. Chapter four is the discussion about the prosperous talents and recluse spirit of human in the Chinese garden. The final chapter is the conclusion.
