The first formulation of the Theory of mimesis is based on the assumption that art and literature represent the real world, or nature. In later analyzes, although the scope of the object of mimesis expands to include the general, beautiful nature, human action, and the ideal, the assumption remains that literary representation is realistically concerned with external objects or the state of affairs. Thus, what the Theory of imitation yields, in spite of the diversity of the subject matter of mimesis, ultimately entails the neglect of two fundamental issues,that is, ignoring the Construction of reality and also the effect of the subject's epistemological Construction on the quality of representation. For this reason, in this research, while accepting the basic assumptions of the Theory of imitation, we first clarify the limits of the concept of mental image. We then assume that the mind is able to represent a primitive reality through images that are sometimes fundamentally alien to the situation. Finally, by emphasizing Searle's distinction of institutional and brute facts, while modifying his view, we clarify the importance of applying this distinction to the Theory of mimesis and explain how language is involved in the regulation of the Construction of reality.
