ARISTOTLE’S USE OF “EXCELLENCE”
–“Q: What do truth, excellence, and beauty mean?”–

Great question.

|Contribution To The Commons|: Duty > True > Good > Excellent > Beautiful > Heroic

Basically these are the criteria demanding the maximum contribution to the commons (heroism) in exchange for respect and status.

Conversely, they are the criteria by which we can determine if people are ‘skating’ on their duty to the commons.

Aristotle’s use of Excellence is the demand for the individual to achieve his potential limits, and in doing so improve the polity (commons).
