TRAGIC FLAW IN PADA SEBUAH KAPAL BY NH. DINI
There have been various attempts to define literature. We can define it, for example, as 'imaginative ' writing in the sense of fiction writing which is not literally true. But even the briefest reflection on what people commonly include under the heading of literature suggests that this will not do. Literature is not a way of knowing reality but a kind of collective utopian dreaming which has gone throughout history, an expression of those fundamental human desires which have given rise to civilization itself, but which are never fully satisfied there and it is no to be seen as the self-expression of individual author. Tragedy and comedy can be subdivided into high mimetic, low mimetic and ironic; tragedy is about human isolation, comedy about human integration. In the Poetics, Aristotle (384-322 B.C.) compares tragedy to such other metrical forms as comedy and epic. He determines that tragedy, like all poetry, is a kind of imitation (mimesis), but adds that it has a serious purpose and uses direct action rather than narrative to achieve its ends. He says that poetic mimesis is imitation of things as they could be, not as they are, for example, of universals and ideals thus poetry is a more philosophical and exalted medium than history, which records what has actually happened.
This is the concept of Imitation (mimesis) by Aristotle.
