Exercise on Paraphrasing

Answers:

1.     Additionally, Aristotle presumed that imitating involves the human maturity and in that perception he observed a role for the arts. According to Aristotle, the artist has the choice to copy the elements to consider in the world, but he does claim on the harmony of style (lawful and structural characters). He explains style in specifications of its “principles” by which he means any outside influence (aside from “matter”) that signifies the nature of things, and what its capability is. To sum things, form is the reason why something is the way it is. While Plato’s form corresponds to desired forms, Aristotle relates form to something fundamental in the object. Copies and Attractiveness.

2.    Also one thing that varies Plato and Aristotle from each other is how they discuss imitation with respect to beauty. Beauty, for Plato, is regarded as a concept or content of the mind that is revealed in accordance to the world. Therefore he treated mathematics significantly as the reason to understand the earth.  On the other hand, beauty for Aristotle is something natural, it is also an action of form, it is not understandable as for Plato, but it is found in a thing. Particularly, it is related to the circumstance.
