论亚里士多德共时态体裁理论

Aristotle's Synchronic Theory on Genre

亚里士多德体裁理论研究的对象是作为美的艺术的诗,在注重科学性和系统性的前提下,侧重对古希腊时代的特定体裁现象作逻辑的共时水平上的比较和区分。具体做法是:首先在界定诗的性质的基础上对其进行分类,指出作为艺术的诗的一般性法则;然后,由对体裁一般性现象的研究进入到对个别体裁的探讨,论述各种体裁之间的关系,确立其价值;在此基础上,建构起多层次的、立体的体裁分类空间。

The object of Aristotle's synchronic theory is poetry, the art of beauty. Preceded by the scientific and systematic principle, this study focuses on a logic and synchronic comparison and differentiation of the genre in ancient Greeks. Specifically, classification of poetry is made after a clear definition of its nature and the general rules of poetry as an art are given. Then, studies are made from the general phenomena of genre to the discussion of the individual genre, explaining the relationships among different genres and establishing their value. In so doing, it is intended to construct a multilevel classification of genres.
