What's the relation between erotic desire and aesthetics in Soren Kierkegaard, The Seducer's Diary

Aesthetic, in this sense, does not mean "beautiful" in the classical sense. Instead, it means a life dedicated to immediate pleasure. Erotic desire is therefore the most powerful manifestation of the aesthetic life.
