Cross-Cultural Reflections on Chinese Aesthetics, Gender, Embodiment and Learning
This book gathers research and writings that reflect on traditional and current global issues related to art and aesthetics, gender perspectives, body theories, knowledge and learning. It illustrates these core dimensions, which are bringing together philosophy, tradition and cultural studies and laying the groundwork for comparative research and dialogues between aesthetics, Chinese philosophies, Western feminist studies and cross-cultural thought. Pursuing an interdisciplinary approach, the book also integrates philosophical enquiries with cultural anthropology and contextual studies. As implied in the title, the main methodologies are cross-cultural and comparative studies, which touch on performances in art and aesthetics, social existence and education, and show that philosophical enquiries, aesthetical representation and gender politics are simultaneously historical, living and contextual. The book gathers a wealth of cross-cultural reflections on philosophical aesthetics, gender existence and cultural traditions. The critical thinking within will benefit undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers in the area of comparative philosophies. It blends academic rigor with personal reflection, which is a critical practice in feminist philosophy itself.
Aesthetic Literacies in School and Work
This book argues the importance of aesthetic literacies in learning and teaching in schools for future work. The study of aesthetics is critical in today’s learning, due to the increasingly complex ways in which we communicate meaning, such as through the presentation of texts and objects. The book provides educators, pre-service teachers, and students an in-depth understanding of aesthetic literacies in innovative spaces, including in philosophical literature, environmental spaces, curricula and classrooms. Using various theoretical frames from both the arts and literacy fields, this book shares relevant pedagogies, theorisations and contexts where aesthetic literacies are at the core of learning. It emphasises how improved knowledge of aesthetics and quality experiences in beauty are vital in aiding students and young children develop the necessary resilience and tolerance needed in today’s uncertain world.

Die Publikation stellt den Hongkonger Philosophen Lao Sze-kwang (1927-2012) anhand seiner kulturtheoretischen Schriften und mit Blick auf seine Positionierung liberaler Werte vor. Lao gehörte zu jenen akademischen Philosophen, die ab den 1950er Jahren auch am öffentlichen Diskurs teilnahmen, sowohl das koloniale Umfeld als auch den Kalten Krieg kritisch beleuchteten und vor einer Ideologisierung durch die Kommunistische Partei in der Volksrepublik China und durch die Nationale Volkspartei in Taiwan warnten. Laos Rezeption zeitgenössischer Philosophen wie F. A. Hayek und E. Cassirer, aber auch seine Analysen von G. W. F. Hegel und I. Kant zielen dabei nicht zuletzt auf eine philosophische Neuinterpretation klassischer konfuzianischer Werte. Honkong kommt dabei entgegen einer häufig vorschnell zugeschriebenen, marginalen Rolle im historischen Weltgeschehen die Funktion zu, negative Folgen und positive Möglichkeiten einer globalen Moderne zu bündeln. Die Publikation richtet sich an ein Publikum, das Einblicke in die Neuinterpretation vormoderner konfuzianischer Texte, die Rezeption philosophischer Thesen im chinesischen Sprachraum, sowie die Entstehung liberaler Standpunkte in Hongkong aufgrund der Schriften Lao Sze-kwangs gewinnen möchte.
