In the Poetics he focuses mainly on drama, especially tragedy, and introduces ideas that are still being debated more than two thousand years later. Among them is the often misunderstood theory of the unities of action, place, and time, as well as such concepts as: art as a form of imitation, and drama as an imitation of human actions; plot as a drama’s central element, and reversal” and recognition” as important elements within a plot; and the purging of pity and fear from the audience as the function of tragedy. Rather than offer these ideas merely as abstract theories, Aristotle applies them in cogent analyses of the classic Greek dramasthe tragedies of Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides.In the Rhetoric , Aristotle turns to the principles of persuasive writing, including argumentation and the logical development of proof, appeals to emotion, and matters of delivery and style. Perhaps most essentially, Aristotle teaches us how to engage in the central civic activities of accusing and defending, recommending policies, and proving and refuting ideas.These two foundational works are key documents for understanding the culture and politics of Western civilization, and how they continue to evolve today. Eugene Garver is Regents Professor of Philosophy at Saint John’s University, Collegeville, Minnesota. He is the author of Machiavelli and the History of Prudence , Aristotle’s Rhetoric: An Art of Character , For the Sake of Argument: Practical Reasoning, Character, and the Ethics of Belief , and the forthcoming Living with Thought: A Confrontation with Aristotle’s Ethics .
