Description

Explore the complex layers of literary theory with Mimesis in a Cognitive Perspective: Mallarme, Flaubert, and Eminescu. Published by Routledge, this work examines the philosophical concept of mimesis, a term rooted in Aristotelian thought that encompasses imitation, representation, and the presentation of self. In this study, Nicolae Babuts applies a cognitive lens to modern literary criticism. The text analyzes how mimesis has been interpreted over recent decades, focusing on two primary strands. First, it looks at the relationship between art, poetry, and the external world through the lens of reference to reality. Second, it investigates the importance of memory and cognitive processes in how we understand representation. This book provides a deep look into the works of Mallarme, Flaubert, and Eminescu, making it a valuable resource for students and scholars interested in the intersection of psychology, philosophy, and literary studies.
