"Über die Dichtkunst beim Aristoteles" by Aristotle is a foundational text on literary theory written in the 4th century BCE. This work examines the principles of poetry and drama, particularly focusing on genres such as tragedy and epic poetry. The book seeks to articulate the structures, functions, and aesthetic qualities of various forms of artistic expression in ancient literature, drawing on philosophical insights and the historical context of Greek culture. At the start of this comprehensive exploration, the author introduces the purpose of the work: to analyze the nature of poetry and its various forms, including tragedy, comedy, and epic, through the lens of imitation (mimesis). Aristotle outlines key distinctions among these genres, highlighting the different means and subjects utilized in artistic representations. He emphasizes the significance of elements such as plot, character, and style in the formation of a cohesive narrative, indicating that each genre has its unique contributions to the broader field of literature. Throughout this opening, the groundwork is laid for a detailed discussion of dramatic structure and its impact on audience emotions, particularly the elicitation of pity and fear.
