Rorty, A. O. [ed.]. Essays on Aristotle's Poetics, Princeton, 1992.

Aimed at deepening our understanding of the Poetics, this collection places Aristotle’s analysis of tragedy in its larger philosophical context. In these 21 essays, philosophers and classicists explore the corpus of Aristotle’s work in order to link the Poetics to the rest of his views on psychology and on history, ethics, and politics. The essays addressed such topics as catharsis, pity and fear, pleasure, character and of the unity of action, and the modality of dramatic action.
