paperback. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.

We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves deeply into the famed work, Aristotle's Poetics, which holds great significance as the most ancient work in existence regarding literary criticism. It explores key concepts including imitation, catharsis, and plot structure, delving into Aristotle's insightful examinations of the components of epic poetry and tragedy, as well as the factors that make these literary forms effective. The author provides insightful analysis and interpretation, drawing connections to broader historical and literary contexts to illuminate Aristotle's ideas. The examination of tragedy, in particular, unravels Aristotle's groundbreaking concept of catharsis, highlighting how it purifies and refines human emotions through the experience of fear and pity. The book unveils the depth and complexity of Aristotle's insights, demonstrating their enduring relevance and applicability to the study and creation of literature even today. This book is an invaluable resource for students, scholars, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Aristotle's foundational work on literary criticism.
