The article presents the fundamental assumptions of Chinese aesthetics. Chinese philosophy and aesthetics are as rich as Western aesthetics, and avoiding the implications of that fact may slow the development of aesthetics as a whole. In this article, the etymology and sources of aesthetics are discussed, and the range of research interests of comparative aesthetics of China and the West is outlined. The author also describes selected categories of Chinese aesthetics – suggestiveness (analyzed with the idea of hanxu) and the concept of fǎ, which is considered a law within Chinese tradition. The category of harmony is discussed in reference to music, as well as to nature and society.
