The term mimesis has long been used to refer to the relationship between an image and its "real" original. However, recent theorists have problematized and extended the concept, allowing new perspectives on such key concerns as the nature of identity. Matthew Potolsky offers a clear introduction to this potentially daunting concept, examining:
DT the foundations of mimetic theory in ancient philosophy, from Plato to Aristotle
DT three key versions of mimesis: imitation or rhetorical imitation, theatre and theatricality, and artistic realism
DT the position of mimesis in modern theories of identity and culture, through theorists such as Freud, Lacan, Girard and Baudrillard
DT the possible future of mimetic theory in the concept of "memes," which connects evolutionary biology and theories of cultural reproduction.
An accessible and broad-ranging study of a term rapidly returning to the forefront of contemporary theory, Mimesis will be a welcome guide for readers in fields such as literature, performance and cultural studies.

评分bibliography有用，以柏拉圖和亞裏士多德梳理的兩條綫非常清晰，彆無他求。
评分模仿一直是西方文學理論的一個中心概念，貫穿瞭整個文學史。一方麵對現實的模仿開啓瞭詩與哲學之爭，另一方麵對古人的模仿又引起瞭古今之爭。時至今日，文學理論仍然脫離不瞭柏拉圖和亞裏士多德所劃定的基本界域。
