Does art/poetry create just an imitation of nature?

Asked by dopeguru (1928points) March 22nd, 2015

If not then what role does poetry/art play in nature/truth/reality? For example, if a man wants to learn of justice from a poem, can he? How true can that really be though? How is that compared to a reading about it from a philosophy or psychology book?
