Abstract: As a famous practical aesthetician, Yang Enhuan edited and published aesthetic pedagogy in 1987, put forward the complete framework of aesthetic pedagogy theory earlier in China, and systematically expounded a series of important theoretical issues such as the nature and goal, task and function, structure and process of aesthetic education. This achievement is an effort to open up a new academic field and establish a new marginal discipline. Since then, Mr. Yang has continued to supplement and improve the relevant theories of aesthetic pedagogy in other works such as art education series, and made contributions to the development of aesthetic education theory and practice in contemporary China.
