• W324479955 abstract "Art standeth firmly fixed in nature, and who can read her forth thence, he only possesseth her. The more closer they work abideth in life, so much the better will it appear, and this true Durer The present paper is devoted to an analysis of the role of mimesis in poetic drama with special reference to Aristotle and Abhinavagupta. The choice of this topic may sound odd to many readers because the significance of comparative philosophy is perpetually contested and one can see the reasons behind this resistance against it. One may contest the possibility of comparing ideas that have originated in different cultures because the context in which these ideas arise are quite different. But I think that despite the variety of cultures, the human emotive experience has certain universal dimensions. The joys, the sorrows, sensuous pleasures and pains experienced by us in our lives have certain common features. All of us experience the pain of parting from loved ones or the pleasure of communication and love, similarly all of us experience fear and insecurity. It is another matter that what we find painful or pleasant may vary according to the tradition that has influenced our way of life. Thus although the dramatic and poetic traditions of ancient Greece and India were quite different, yet the problems of aesthetics generated by these art traditions had many common features. That is the reason behind this comparison between Aristotle and Abhinavagupta on the problem of representation in art. If there is any aesthetic concept that has been constantly reiterated as well as repudiated it is mimesis. The relationship between art and nature has been a constant preoccupation of both practicing artists and art theorists. This relationship is broadly categorized in terms of mimesis--a term that has a wide range of meanings that vary between literal imitation and representation. The variation of meanings is also due to the variety of art media and the different trends in the art traditions of the world. It is well known that nature has been a great inspiration for artists that is the major reason of the significance of mimesis as an aesthetic concept. However, those who want to highlight the creative uniqueness of art reject the idea of mimesis. The rendering of mimesis of nature also varies according to the art medium. It is only in drama, painting and sculpture that mimesis is taken as an imitation of apparent forms, in dance, music and poetry it can only be understood as an attempt to capture the inherent nature of the phenomena represented. In the Greek tradition, from where this term originated, mimesis has different overtones of meaning. In its original sense mimesis referred to dance, mimicry and music, it was only later applied to the visual arts. This shows that in its original sense it did not refer to the copying of the outward manifestation of things but to their inherent character. The Sanskrit terms associated with mimesis are anukarana and sadrsya which are translated as imitation and similitude. Both in classical, Greek and Indian poetics this concept is the subject of debate that has led to the elaboration of details associated with it. These details are interesting because they give an insight into the nature of artistic creativity. In philosophical discourse this term was first used by Plato in his dialogues. In his writings he mostly used it in its narrow literal sense as copying of appearances by artists Plato drew a contrast between artists and philosophers, he held that only the latter have access to knowledge of reality, the former are merely trapped by their opinions and fancies. Plato's other reason for criticizing artists was their superficiality and hyper emotionality. He held that the creativity of poets is simply born of inspiration and not out of knowledge. Aristotle continued with Plato's concept of art as mimesis but he gave a new orientation to the concept of mimesis. …" @default.
