Mimesis is one of the oldest, most fundamental concepts in Western aesthetics. This book offers a searching treatment of its long history at the center of theories of representational art. Moving between ancient and modern traditions, it contends that the history of mimesis hinges on problems that are of concern for contemporary aesthetics.
