In his new ebook revealed by Phrase on Hearth, Magnificence &
Imitation: A Philosophical Reflection on the Arts, thinker
and novelist Daniel McInerny argues for a restoration of the
Aristotelian understanding of artwork as basically imitative or
mimetic. Extra boldly, he claims that this imitation is narrative
and ethical in nature, even in artwork varieties that aren’t usually
thought-about storytelling arts.
On this episode Daniel introduces this principle of mimesis, after
which there’s a strong back-and-forth between Daniel and Thomas on
whether or not ethical narrative is basically the first objective of arts like
portray and music.
