Poetics
ARISTOTLE (384 BCE - 322 BCE), translated by Ingram BYWATER (1840 - 1914)
Aristotle’s
Poetics from the 4th century B.C. aims to give a short study of
storytelling. It discusses things like unity of plot, reversal of
situation, and character in the context of Greek tragedy, comedy and
epic poetry. But it still applies today. It is especially popular with
screenwriters as seen in many script gurus’ how-to books. (Summary by
Robert Foster)

Politics
ARISTOTLE (384 BCE - 322 BCE), translated by Benjamin JOWETT (1817 - 1893)
The
Politics, by the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle, is one of the
most influential texts in political philosophy. In it, Aristotle
explores the role that the political community should play in developing
the virtue of its citizens. One of his central ideas is that "Man is a
political animal," meaning that people can only become virtuous by
active participation in the political community. Aristotle also
criticizes his teacher Plato, classifies and evaluates six different
types of constitutions and political institutions, and describes his
vision of the ideal state. Aristotle's views on women and slavery are
unenlightened by today's standards, but his work remains enduring and
relevant to this day.
