poetics
Aristotle is the most prominent philosopher of ancient philosophy. It is accepted that only Plato could reach a similar level of philosophy in ancient times. Aristotle, who left his mark on ancient times, is considered by many to be one of the greatest philosophers of all ages. It is accepted by almost everyone that the number of people who can hope to compete with what he achieved in science and philosophy can be counted on the fingers of one hand.
Aristotle wrote works in many fields such as logic, natural sciences, metaphysics, psychology, ethics and political philosophy. The body of works, called "Aristotle's corpus", consisting of 1462 pages originally in Greek, consists of notes of his lectures taken by himself or his students.
Unlike his teacher Plato, who saw art as the imitation of imitation and almost declared it the archenemy of philosophy on the grounds that it alienated people from the truth, Aristotle deals with the nature and source of poetic creation, the relationship of poetry with nature and truth, the purpose and function of art in his Poetics. The book reads like a radical response to Plato's critical challenge to art.
Poetics, one of Aristotle's most important works, is a fundamental work for everyone who is interested not only in poetry and theater but also in art as a whole.
