Aristotle, Poetics - Problems And Solutions - Sadler's Lectures
from Sadler's Lectures Hosted by Lectures on classic and contemporary philosophical texts and thinkers by Gregory B. Sadler
This lecture discusses the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle' work, the Poetics, focusing on his views on what by his time had come to be called "problems" (problemata) mainly of criticism and their "solutions" (luseis) when it comes to poetry, particularly epic poetry. Aristotle's view is that many of these can be addressed by looking carefully at the language and the meanings in passages or compositions that are being criticized.
