A Tragedy
must be an imitation of life,
in the form of a story,
that is complete in itself.
- in other words, the story must be realistic and narrow in focus.
- Will evoke pity and fear in its viewers.
- Causing the viewers to experience a feeling of catharsis.
- purgation / purification
- viewers feeling elated
- Hamartia / Tragic Flaw - important for tragedy.
- Good tragedies are filled with irony.
- A sad ending, but the Wisdom gained through Suffering.
