Problem of Beauty - Aesthetic Thought and Pursuits in Northern Song Dynasty China

During the Northern Song dynasty (960-1126), new ground was broken in aesthetic thought, particularly in the fields of art collecting, poetry criticism, connoisseurship of flowers, and the song lyric. By focusing on the "problem of beauty," this book examines the difficulties that Northern Song innovators faced in justifying the new pursuits.
