The Poetics is a book written by the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle, which serves as a comprehensive guide to the art of poetry and literary criticism. Aristotle defines poetry as a form of imitation, and explores the various elements that make up a successful work of literature, including plot, character, language, and style. He also delves into the different genres of poetry, such as tragedy and epic, and provides insights into the emotional and psychological effects that these genres can have on their audiences. In addition, Aristotle offers detailed analysis and criticism of several famous works of literature, including those of his contemporary, the playwright Sophocles. The Poetics is considered a seminal work in the field of literary criticism, and has influenced writers and thinkers throughout the ages.Translated By Ingram Bywater.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
