The Song Dynasty was a peak period in the history of Chinese aesthetics of daily living. The "Four Elegant Pursuits of the Southern Song"-incense burning, tea whisking, scroll hanging, and flower arranging-stand as classic examples of Song-style living aesthetics. 宋代是中国生活美学史上的高峰期。以焚香、点茶、挂画、插花为代表的"南宋四雅",是宋式生活美学的经典案例 The literati of the Song Dynasty pursued the aesthetic of "refined elegance" (qingya), and the "Four Elegant Pursuits of the Southern Song" form an essential part of Song-style cultural heritage. The Four Elegant Pursuits of the Southern Song systematically elaborates on the achievements of Song Dynasty incense culture, tea culture, painting, and the art of flower arranging from four respective perspectives-incense, tea, painting, and flowers-as well as the formation of the elegance-oriented lifestyle aesthetics they came to represent. The book also seeks to observe and reflect on contemporary society from a micro perspective. Based on research into historical texts, images, and material artifacts, this richly illustrated volume is an accessible yet scholarly work designed for a broad readership, appealing to both specialists and general enthusiasts alike. 宋代文人追求"清雅"之美,"南宋四雅"是宋韵文化重要的组成部分。《南宋四大雅事》分别从香、茶、画、花四个侧面,系统阐释宋代香文化、茶文化、绘画及插花艺术的成就,以及以此为代表的尚雅生活美学的形成,并力图从微观角度观察并反映当时的社会。本书是以文献、图像、实物资料研究为基础,以图文并茂的形式,面向广大读者的雅俗共赏的读物。
