Samenvatting

Despite its brevity, the Poetics has had an enormous influence on Western thought, both heralded for its compositional advice and vilified as a formalist abomination. It is still used as a “manual for writers” in creative writing programs in English, Theatre, and Film departments. But do we truly understand Aristotle's advice for playwrights? Decoding the Tragic in Aristotle argues that we should reconsider the meaning of key terms that have become standard in modern literary theory, such as hamartia, pathos, and catharsis.
