More about the book
Exploring the intricacies of poetry, this collection delves into Aristotle's classification of poetic forms, including drama, comedy, and epic. It highlights the concept of mimesis, or life's imitation, while emphasizing the distinct characteristics of each genre. The author examines Aristotle's insights on tragedy, which seeks to portray individuals as nobler than reality, and outlines the six essential elements of tragedy: plot, character, phrasing, thought, exhibition, and song. This work serves as both a poetic anthology and a philosophical study of artistic expression.
