«Poética» is Aristotle's treatise on literary theory, published by Alianza in paperback (128 pages, in Spanish).
Aristotle studies the theatre of classical Greece and dissects the elements of tragedy: the plot, the parts of the dramatic work and the spectator's response. The text establishes notions such as catharsis, peripeteia and anagnorisis, which became pillars of Western literary thought.
Edition translated, introduced and annotated by Alicia Villar Lecumberri. Published in 2006 in the El Libro de Bolsillo collection, Biblioteca de Clásicos de Grecia y Roma.
For those interested in philosophy, literary theory and classical studies.
Aristotle was an ancient Greek philosopher and polymath. His writings span the natural sciences, philosophy, linguistics, economics, politics, psychology, and the arts. As the founder of the Peripatetic school of philosophy in the Lyceum in Athens, he began the wider Aristotelian tradition that followed, which set the groundwork for the development of modern science.
