Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Aristotle's Poetics is a foundational text in literary theory that categorizes poetic art into verse drama, lyric poetry, and epic poetry. It opens with a defense of poetry against Plato's critiques, asserting that poetry's mimetic nature does not undermine its rationality or truth. Instead, Aristotle views poetry as a transformative tool for society, positioning poets as both imitators and creators. This work explores the essential role of poetry in enhancing human experience and understanding.
