| Summary: | Le Petit Prince has inspired studies in various academic disciplines and its theoretical value has been recognized by important contemporary philosophers.

We will justify this reading from the Aristotelian poetic tradition updated in the theory and hermeneutical methodology of authors such as Paul Ricoeur and Alfonso López Quintás. |
