Abstract
While Plato extols inspired poetry, Aristotle conceives of poetry mainly in terms of techne. Underlying the opposition between inspiration and technique are two different approaches to poetry - a 'psychological' and a 'textual' one. Taking its cue from this opposition, the essay explores the analogous notions of poetry as 'idea' (Sidney) and as 'utterance' (Puttenham) within Elizabethan literary criticism.File in questo prodotto:
