This book examines the studies of Aristotle's Poetics and its
related texts in which three Medieval philosophers - Alfarabi,
Avicenna and Averroes - proposed a conception of poetic validity
(beauty), and a just relation between subjects in a community
(goodness). The work considers the relation of the Poetics to other
Aristotelian texts, the transmission of these works to the
commentators' context, and the motivations driving the
commentators' reception of the texts. The book focuses on issues
central to the classical relation of beauty to truth and goodness.
