Despite many specific elements common to both traditions such as disinterestedness, the East Asian tradition lacks aesthetics as an academic discipline and the system of fine art of the West. What does this difference indicate with regard to the human universality of fine arts and Aesthetics? To address this fundamental comparative Aesthetic question, I have inferred the following conclusions through analyzing mainly Shaftesbury’s The Moralists (1709), Charles Batteux’s Les Beaux Arts Réduits à un Même Principe (1746, 1747), Kant’s Critique of the Power of Judgment (1790, 1793), each of which is known as the starting point of the Western modern aesthetics, as the first formulation of the modern system of fine art, and as the first comprehensive synthesis of modern aesthetics. Shaftesbury and Batteux were obviously more influenced by the Platonic concepts of enthusiasm and inspiration, which were associated with Christian theology than disinterestedness, which has been identified as one of the fundamental elements of modern aesthetics. Such “divine” influences were hardly detected in Kant’s aesthetics. Nonetheless, they all presupposed the concept of divine or sacred Nature strongly associated with the ideas of rules and order; this concept of Nature underlies the concept of beauty and the system of fine art in the sense of the possibility of its perception and representation; to explain this possibility, the terms taste and genius were appropriated out of its original meaning; and this possibility also implies their intention to deny the monopoly of nature-rule by emerging reason-science.
