摘要：
This article argues for an aesthetic reading of to kalon, primarily as it appears in Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics. Aristotle uses to kalon to indicate that, to the morally serious, virtue is attractive and productive of a kind of pleasure. Read aesthetically, to kalon mitigates the tension between one's own good and the common good. Aristotle shows how his students' understanding of to kalon can be refined and thus preserved as an important and salutary feature of moral and political life.
