亚里士多德《诗学》的逻辑体系与其模仿论

摘要

亚里士多德的《诗学》与其模仿论一直是西方传统文论的稳固基石，但对其理解却从古至今争议不断。本文首先从其哲学基础“四因论”入手对自然目的论的倾向进行补充分析，并一反给《诗学》冠以规则学的传统式简单理解，进一步深入分析了其逻辑体系，最后得出结论：艺术中的模仿只是模仿一个制作的行为，至于这个行为本身并不遵循模仿的原则，而是遵循生成---创造的原则。%Aristotles Poetics and theory of mimesis have been solid foundations of traditional west-ern literary theory,but the understanding of them is historically controversial.First,this paper starts with the analysis of the natural teleology about"four factor theory".Second,contrary to the tradi-tional simple understanding as rule learning,the paper further analyzes the logical system of Poetics. Finally it draws the conclusion:The imitation in arts merely imitates a production behavior,while the act itself does not follow the principle of imitation,but the generative creative principle.
