PRINCIPLES OF MIMESIS AND THE FICTION IN LESSINGS HAMBURG DRAMATURGY.

Lessing's views on dramaturgy of applying of art mimesis and a fiction in theatre partly come out from analysis of the ancient classicists, partly from the period of enlightened reflection of the theatre. But mostly they come out from the French classicism and from the study of English aesthetics literature. Lessing anticipated the radical turn from the old-fashioned imitate theories and he opened in theory the possibility, to point out, that the reality under influence of the fiction can become different and problematic. Meeting with fiction allows also the real world to see ontologically deeper. One of Lessing's effort was to prove how the classic Aristoteles demands can be applied on the contemporary drama in the theoretical reflection of mimesis.
