Samenvatting

A study of a neglected strand of Aristotelian poetics - anagnorisis, or recognition - exploring its history and the way it has recurred in fiction and drama from the Odyssey to thrillers by Le Carré. Terence Cave examines recognition in English, French, and German literature, including the works of Shakespeare, James, Racine, and Goethe.
