About this book

Aristotle’s “Poetics” is the earliest surviving work of dramatic theory and the first extant philosophical treatise to focus on literary theory. In this seminal text, Aristotle discusses the art of poetry at length, considering not just the form and structure of poetry but also its effect on the audience.
