Mimesis and Make-Believe by Walton

Kendall Walton's Mimesis as Make-Believe: On the Foundations of the Representational Arts is a major work of analytic philosophy of art, originally published by Harvard University Press in 1990 and later issued in a reprint paperback edition. By grounding the theory of representation in the logic of children's make-believe, Walton constructs a unified framework that spans literature, painting, sculpture, theater, and film — making it essential reading for philosophers of art, aestheticians, and theorists of fiction.
