Abstrakt: The realm of literary studies extends far beyond mere academic exploration; it serves as a multifaceted conduit that not only instructs and entertains but also provides a platform for individuals to express their thoughts and emotions through critical analysis. In this qualitative study, we delve into the intricate world of mimetic and pragmatic transactions within a selection of poems authored by Ulysses B. Aparece, specifically "Calling," "Hermit," and "Ritual. "These poetic creations shed light on the inherent mimetic textualities found within persona-vision-addressee imaginary transactions and reader-response dynamics. This exploration reveals the immediate and profound interaction occurring between the text and the reader, enriching the understanding of the intricate dance between mimesis and pragmatics within our lived realities. The findings of this study are not only captivating but also offer profound insights. In "Calling," the symbolic use of water represents the rejuvenating power of nature, while "Hermit" artfully weaves the persona's narrative back to their ancestral origins through familiar landscapes. "Ritual" uncovers forgotten wisdom and practices within alternative medicine. On a pragmatic level, the poems demonstrate how skepticism can be effectively countered by the genuineness of "Calling," how a steadfast comprehension of one's roots can pave the way for success, as illustrated in "Hermit," and how doubts and uncertainties can dissipate in the light of newfound understanding, as exemplified by "Ritual. "The significance of this study lies in its contribution to the understanding of how literature, through these poems, enriches our comprehension of the world and ourselves. It invites both readers and scholars to explore the rich tapestry of literary texts and to embrace the transformative power they wield in enhancing our knowledge and insight. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
