Thomas Habinek [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
The article focuses on mimesis in art as discussed in theories by classical philosophers such as Plato and Aristotle. The article discusses ancient philosophers' exemption of philosophy from mimesis, their claim that imitation is associated with pleasure and what forms coordination and inhibition take within an individual as discussed in Plato's "Republic." The article goes on to discuss the opinions of philosopher John Kalvicki, artistic mimesis as a means of social and individual regulation and how mimesis affects the role of art historians.
