Abstract
Researches and resource construction about Western aesthetic bibliography are relatively weak in China, which has undermined Chinese studies of Western aesthetics. To tackle this problem, it is necessary to promote a comparative bibliography of Western aesthetics. This discipline would create a knowledge graph for both Western aesthetic classics' development in the West and their reception in China. A comparative analysis of the two knowledge graphs would reveal characteristics, hot topics, evolvement, and blind spots in Chinese studies of Western aesthetics. Through targeting these weaknesses by comparative studies, this discipline could also improve the status quo of translation, introduction, and resource construction of Western aesthetic classics, advance researches, and join Chinese scholars' discourse into that of international peers.
