In the first section the study reconstructs the reception of
Aristotle's Treatise on Poetry and the genesis of the concept of
fiction. In the second part it reconstructs the history of the
concept of inspiration, which around 1500 was still understood to
be divine expression, but which in the course of the 16th and 17th
century was reinterpreted to mean the specific talent of the poet.
At the beginning of the 18th century this later evolved into the
concept of genius. While fictionality became the defining feature
of the novel, the specific inspired writing style became the main
characteristic of poetry.
