Abstract

The article reflects on Aristotle's Poetics, 4.1448 b4-19. It examines how the defi- nition of man as a mimetic animal (b5-9) is underestimated in educational prax- is, and then, according to Aristotle, points to mimesis as the core of the under- standing/learning processes. Arguing a revaluation of mimesis as necessary to educational praxis, the article presents a project delivered through this principle in a multi-ethnic school context. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
