Mimesis - Psychology Dictionary of Arguments | |||
Mimesis: Mimesis (μίμησις) is the imitation or representation of reality in art, literature, and other media. Plato believed that art is a copy of a copy, and that the true reality is the world of the Forms. Aristotle, on the other hand, believed that art is a way of imitating the world and revealing its inner workings.
