Cai Yuan-pei was the founder of Chinese modern aesthetic education.His aesthetic ideas were fully influenced by Schille.Cai Yuan-pei not only translated the term of aesthetic from Schiller’s Uber die Asthetische Erizchung des Menschen,but also absorbed Schiller’s viewpoint to build his own theories system.Cai Yuan-pei’s acceptance of Schiller’s aesthetic ideas has much to do with his early readings,his learning and living in Universit?t Leipzig,and his researches on Philosophy for Beginners.As Cai Yuan-pei’s views on foreign culture was absorbing and digesting it instead of copying blindly,this acceptance was latent,and few scholars have paid close attention to it.
