Plato and Aristotle on Poetry (Paperback, New edition)
Supplier out of stock. If you add this item to your wish list we will let you know when it becomes available.

This book is a guide to the poetics of the two Greek fountainheads
of Western literary theory. Part I traces the development of
Plato's great themes of inspiration and imitation but makes no
attempt to reduce his disparate statements to a system. Part II
demonstrates that Aristotle's "Poetics" embodies a powerful theory
of literature that answers Plato's objections to poetry as an
emotionally powerful, and therefore dangerous, communication of
false opinion.
Originally published in 1987.
