"There is further an art which imitates by language alone, without harmony, in prose or in verse, and if in verse, either in some one or in a plurality of metres. This form of imitation is to this day without a name."
"By language alone." I take Aristotle to mean here without accompanying music. This kind of "poetry" can be written either in prose or in verse. I think today it might be called "literature."
