| Description: |
Here, Michael Davis argues convincingly that in addition to teaching us something about poetry, "Poetics" contains an understanding of the common structure of human action and human thought which connects it to Aristotle's other writings on politics and morality. |
| Synopsis: |
Although Aristotle's "Poetics" is the most frequently read of his works, philosophers and political theorists have left analysis of the text to literary critics. In this book Michael Davis argues convincingly that in addition to teaching us something about poetry, "Poetics" contains an understanding of the common structure of human action and human thought which connects it to Aristotle's other writings on politics and morality. Davis demonstrates that the duality of "poetics" reaches out to the philosopher, writer, and political theorist and shows the importance of the ideal in our imaginings of and goals for the future. |
