Wisdom regained through perspective has become a significant mission of cross-cultural teaching and communication. It’s urgent for Chinese aesthetic conception to merge into Cross-cultural Teaching in the trend of cultural globalization, in which the aestheticization of Chinese ethic culture is often ignored. This study is to rediscover new light for today’s humanity in the traditional notions of wisdom from Chinese ethic culture and to enrich people transculturally. It is herein argued that Chinese culture, especially the morality and the ethic culture, expressed aesthetically, can enhance wisdom with a new enlightened attitude to life and nature. Two aspects regarding the aestheticization of Chinese culture are emphasized: (1) aesthetic thinking images and poetic languages serve as the cognitive media to convey moralities; (2) a balanced moral personalities beneficial to both individuals’ spiritual life and sustainable development of social culture are coherently maintained through artistic and aesthetic coordination of the circling path between Confucian and Taoist culture.
Key words: Aestheticization, confucian culture, moral personalities, taoist thought, , ,
