Description

This scholarly work by Nicolae Babuts examines mimesis through a cognitive lens, exploring how literary art relates to external reality and internal representation. Published by Routledge, the book revisits Aristotle's foundational concept and traces its evolution through modern literary criticism over the past two to three decades. Babuts identifies two central strands of mimetic theory: the relationship between art, poetry and the world through reference to external reality, and the significance of memory in shaping artistic expression. The analysis encompasses close readings of major figures including Mallarme, Flaubert and Eminescu, demonstrating how mimesis functions as both imitation and creative interpretation. This text offers readers a rigorous exploration of how mimesis operates within cognitive frameworks, making it essential for students of literary theory, philosophy and cognitive aesthetics.
