本书试图通过反思与还原，以呈现原本的庄子美学。在悉心研读庄子文本和系统考察庄子美学研究成果的基础上，通过多方深入辨析，表明庄子美学本身是道德精神意义上的美学，而不是审美意义上的美学，它本身表现出反审美性。进而论述了庄子思想通过魏晋南北朝的玄学和美学的创造性转化而成为审美意义上的道家美学，故而在审美意义上庄子美学可以称为后效美学。

This book attempts to present the original Zhuangzi aesthetics through reflection and restoration. On the basis of careful study of Zhuangzi's texts and systematic investigation of Zhuangzi's aesthetic research results, through in-depth analysis from many sides, it shows that Zhuangzi aesthetics itself is aesthetics in the sense of morality and spirituality, rather than aesthetics in the aesthetic sense, and it itself shows anti-aesthetics. Furthermore, it is discussed that Zhuangzi thought became Taoist aesthetics in the aesthetic sense through the creative transformation of metaphysics and aesthetics in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, so Zhuangzi aesthetics in the aesthetic sense can be called post-effect aesthetics.（AI翻译）
