From the Back Cover:
Recognitions is the first full-length study of a neglected term in Aristotelian poetics- anagnorisis, or recognition. Terence cave first traces the history of the term and explores the ways in which it continues to be a valuable focus for the theoretical reflection. The book demonstrates that recognition must be seen as a topic of the first importance, raising questions about literature and literary knowledge.
