Poetics by Aristotle is a foundational work of literary theory and aesthetics. In it, Aristotle examines the principles of drama, tragedy, and poetry, analyzing their structure, purpose, and emotional impact. The treatise introduces key concepts such as mimesis (imitation), catharsis, and the elements of plot, character, and spectacle, making it a seminal text in both philosophy and the study of literature.
