Diegesis - Mimesis
Abstract
This is the Turkish translation of Stephen Halliwell’s 2014 article “Diegesis- Mimesis” in The Living Handbook of Narratology. Diegesis/mimesis, which the field of narratology defines as telling/showing, are a pair of Greek terms first brought together in a passage from Republic by Plato. Aristotle then uses the words in his context in Poetics. Although this usage bears Platonic traces, it differs from the usage in Republic in certain aspects. Today, this dichotomy has usually been known, with its narrow counterparts determined by narratology. However, considering Plato’s Republic, it is seen that the distinction drawn by Socrates could be said to be not so much between “showing” and “telling” as in standard modern usage. From antiquity to the present, the terms have had a long and sometimes tangled history of use as a pair of critical categories. In his article, Halliwell reveals this confusion by focusing Plato’s Republic, and Aristotle’s Poetics. In the rest of the article, he emphasizes the usage of the terms in the Middle Ages and Renaissance, underlines the confusion arising from the reductionist typology of modern narratology, and points out the gaps he sees in the field for further investigation.
