Sobre aquest llibre
Aristotle's "Poetics" stands as a seminal text in the foundation of literary theory, wherein he meticulously analyzes the principles of dramatic and epic poetry. Written in the 4th century BCE, this work deftly bridges philosophical inquiry with the art of storytelling, presenting concepts such as mimesis, catharsis, and the unities of time, place, and action. Aristotle's analytical style combines empirical observation with deductive reasoning, offering a systematic inquiry into the nature of poetry and its emotive effects on audiences. His exploration of tragedy, in particular, delineates the characteristics of heroic narratives and serves as a cornerstone for the future development of dramatic literature in the Western canon. As a towering figure in ancient philosophy, Aristotle's extensive educational and intellectual background informed his literary critiques. A student of Plato and a teacher of Alexander the Great, he cultivated a profound understanding of human nature and the societal roles that literature plays within it. His holistic approach to knowledge also encompassed natural sciences and ethics, allowing him to draw interdisciplinary connections that enrich his examination of poetic form and function. "Poetics" is essential for anyone keen on understanding the intricate mechanics of storytelling and dramatic art. Whether you are a scholar, a writer, or simply an avid reader, Aristotle's insights will deepen your appreciation for literature's ability to reflect and influence human experience. Engage with this timeless work to unlock the enduring principles that continue to shape narrative art.
Sobre l'autor
Aristotle (384–322 BCE), the ancient Greek philosopher and scientist, is among the most important figures in the intellectual history of the West. A student of Plato and tutor to Alexander the Great, Aristotle's works span a multitude of subjects, ranging from logic, metaphysics, and ethics to biology, zoology, and politics. His treatise 'Poetics' is a seminal analysis of ancient Greek tragedy and epic poetry. In it, Aristotle delineated literary concepts such as mimesis (imitation), hamartia (tragic flaw), and catharsis (emotional purification), providing a foundation for literary criticism that resonates to this day (Aristotle, Poetics). His methodical approach to categorizing and analyzing literature set the standard for genre theory and had a lasting influence on European literature and theory throughout the Renaissance, forming the bedrock for much of Western literary criticism (Halliwell, 1986). Aristotle's work is characterized by its systemic precision and empirical observation, blending philosophy with an almost scientific analysis of the subjects he explored. His contributions to thought, particularly in logic and biology, were unmatched for centuries and continue to be a significant reference point in both humanistic and naturalistic disciplines.
