Critics usually consider texts that work on the basis of a well-established tradition as minor ones, for their "lack of creativity". Specially we are treating texts which are read like a re-lectures or adaptations. In this paper we are specially interested in considering the case of those texts read as a adaptations or re-lectures, using an approach based on the concept of imitatio, a roman aesthetic concept. It recommends an adaptation of literary tradition without the concept of originality to be considered. We will consider fables genre, meanly re-lectures of “The Fox and the grapes”, because it seems to bring many examples of these texts.Downloads
