Tenreiro MachadoBasel :MDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute,2014.©20141 online resource (ix, 551 pages) illustrations3-906980-52-9 Includes bibliographical references.Complex systems are pervasive in many areas of science integrated in our daily lives. Examples include financial markets, highway transportation networks, telecommunication networks, world and country economies, social networks, immunological systems, living organisms, computational systems and electrical and mechanical structures. Complex systems are often composed of a large number of interconnected and interacting entities, exhibiting much richer global scale dynamics than the properties and behavior of individual entities. Complex systems are studied in many areas of natural sciences, social sciences, engineering and mathematical sciences. This special issue therefore intends to contribute towards the dissemination of the multifaceted concepts in accepted use by the scientific community. We hope readers enjoy this pertinent selection of papers which represents relevant examples of the state of the art in present day research.Engineering designNonlinear systemsDynamicsEngineering design.Nonlinear systems.Dynamics.620.104Tenreiro Machado José A.NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910688321603321Dynamical systems80233UNINA03231nam 22006015 450 991048324390332120240509000806.09789811617140981161714710.1007/978-981-16-1714-0(CKB)4100000011946302(MiAaPQ)EBC6631345(Au-PeEL)EBL6631345(OCoLC)1255219684(DE-He213)978-981-16-1714-0(EXLCZ)99410000001194630220210526d2021 u| 0engurcz#---auuuutxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierBeauty and Human Existence in Chinese Philosophy /by Keping Wang1st ed. 2021.Singapore :Springer Nature Singapore :Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan,2021.1 online resource (337 pages)9789811617133 9811617139 The Pictographic Character and Totemism -- The Pottery and Bronze art -- Ethos of the Rites-Music Tradition -- Confucian Ideal and Equilibrium Harmony -- Critique of Mohist Utilitarianism -- Daoist Pursuit and Spontaneous Naturalness -- Beyond Poetic Sentimentalism -- Chan Buddhism and Subtle Void -- The Water Allegory and Waterscape -- The Art of Painting Landscape -- The Rise of Modern Chinese Aesthetics -- How-to-live Concern and Fourfold Engagement.This book considers the Chinese conception of beauty from a historical perspective with regard to its significant relation to human personality and human existence. It examines the etymological implications of the pictographic character mei, the totemic symbolism of beauty, the ferocious beauty of the bronzeware. Further on, it proceeds to look into the conceptual progression of beauty in such main schools of thought as Confucianism, Daoism and Chan Buddhism. Then, it goes on to illustrate through art and literature the leading principles of equilibriumharmony, spontaneous naturalness, subtle void and synthetic possibilities. It also offers a discussion of modern change and transcultural creation conducted with particular reference to the theory of the poetic state par excellence (yi jing shuo) and that of art as sedimentation (ji dian shuo).
