《资本论》可以美学阅读, 美学意蕴突出表现于结构形式。《资本论》结构在处理部分与整体之关系上自觉坚持“艺术整体”的美学法则, 具体表现不仅在于“从抽象上升到具体”的叙述方向, 而且在于“分流—递进”的叙述技巧。《资本论》结构最鲜明特色是贯穿辩证法逻辑程序, 从逻辑起点、范畴转换、原理联系、各卷衔接等, 都显示出“由一种形式过渡到另一种形式, 由一种联系秩序过渡到另一种联系秩序的规律”。《资本论》结构不仅旨在阐释客观规律, 而且意在表达主体风格。《资本论》探究的并非仅是“2+2=4”意义的经济规律, 其结构形式蕴涵审美情愫。《资本论》创作作为“精神生产”, 不仅在论述内容上追求政治经济学目标, 而且在结构形式中实践了“按照美的规律建造”的理念。

Capital can be aesthetically read, and its aesthetic implication stands out as its structural form.The structure of Capital consciously sticks to the aesthetic principle of "art integration"in its dealing with the relationship between part and whole, finding expressions not only in its narrative orientation of "from absolute to concrete", but also in its narrative technipue of "diversion-progression".The most striking structural feature of Capital lies in its logical procedures full of dialectics; its logical starting-point, categorical transition, connection among principles, and joint of several volumes, all show the law of passing from one form to another and from one connected order to another.The structure of Capital aims at expressing the subject's style as well as the objective law.What it explores is not merely a kind of economic law just as 2+2=4.Its structural form implies aesthetic elements.As an intellectual production, Capital pursues an objective of political economics in its theoretical content and puts into effect the idea of creation according to the laws of beauty in its structural form.
