A few theoretical notices about “ars poetica”
The purpose of this study is to define of the concept of ars poetica, following its diachronic transformations in function, its constitutive and legitimatory valences. From its systematic, lawmaking character, ars poetica develops in modernity into a particular form of establishing a style, a personal manner expressing the identity of one’s writing and onto-poetic experience. Its ratification in modernity is no longer under the influence of the academia, under the pressure of canonical poetics, having its basis, at best, on anti-literary and metaliterary responses to previous paradigms.
Keywords: ars poetica, legitimatory function, normative poetics, unsystematic poetics
