Aristotle's Poetics is best known for its definition and analysis of tragedy, but it also applies to the other arts. In our age when the natural and social sciences have dominated the quest for truth, it is helpful to consider why Aristotle claimed "poetry is more philosophical and more significant than history." In this postmodern era when the arts have been separated from ethics, it is worthwhile to consider Aristotle's way of connecting goodness and the arts. This audio version was translated by and is performed by Albert A. Anderson. Music by Michael Severens. Visual art by Donald Krueger.
