通識教育強調超出實用功利性的人文知識，注意人才的全面培養，而文藝所培育之美感對通識教育有亟重要意義。本文以傳統中國文學舉例，探討文學及其對情感與想像之注重對於現時代通識教育之重要性。

The cultivation of aesthetic sensibilities in art and literature is crucial to the humanistic curriculum in liberal education with its emphasis on the pursit of knowledge and enrichment of the mind beyond utilitarianism. This paper explores the value of traditional literature, especially its use in the cultivation of emotions and the development of imagination, for liberal education in our own times.
