Worksheet: Aristotle's Poetics

 Q.1-  How far do you agree with Plato’s objection to freedom of expression and artistic liberty enjoyed by creative writers? Name the texts (novels, plays, poems, movies, TV soaps etc which can be rightfully objected and banned with reference to Plato’s objections)

(1-A).I agree Plato's objection to freedom of expression is true because some kind of serials ,advertisement and literary text is not good aspect for examples are

➨Ahaliya-indra, kunti's children and many other's things

.

➨Sony tv serial "Bharat ka veer putar 'Maharana pratap" .

In real life Maharana Pratap and Akbar never came face to face with each other. But here the two have been fighting each other ever since they were kid. Like every other serial, this serial Forget history, the serial just like any other contemporary TV show is full of saas bahu saajish and melodrama.

➨In the tragedy "Othello" by William Shakespeare During the drama the audience finds itself in concepts of love,hate,jealousy.Othello killed his wife.

➨Advertisements of "Domino's pizza" and other advertisements .97% of all food advertised to all food advertised to make children's unhealthy levels of fat, sugar,or salt.

So I agree with Plato's objection.

Q.2.  With reference to the literary texts you have studied during B.A. programme, write brief note on the texts which followed Aristotelian literary tradition (i.e. his concept of tragedy, catharsis, tragic hero with hamartia etc)

(2-A).Aristotle defines tragedy as, “the imitation of an action that is serious and also has moving magnitude, complete in itself; in appropriate and pleasurable language… in a dramatic rather than narrative form; with incidents arousing pity and fear, where with to accomplish a catharsis of emotions”, . These are unique qualities which can be in Othello. The story starting with the main character and protagonist Othello, an African general for the Venice army. Othello has just married his wife Desdemona. Throughout the play Othello is challenged by Iago who works under him. Iago provides the drama; he represents the antagonist.Nothing good becomes of this play. By the end of this tragedy, both Othello and Desdemona are dead.

Q.3.  With reference to the literary texts you have studies during B.A. programme, write brief note on the texts which did NOT follow Aristotelian literary tradition. (i.e. his concept of tragedy, catharsis, tragic hero with hamartia etc.)

(3-A.) Harry Ape as a modern tragedy does not follow the theory of Aristotle. Yank the hero has no hamartia as he is not a man of highrank . there are the action not external but internal.

Q.4.  Have you studied any tragedies during B.A. programme? Who was/were the tragic protagonist/s in those tragedies? What was their ‘hamartia’?

(4-A). Othello by william shakespeare tragedy I study in my B.A pogramme.follow necessary rules and regulations proposed bAristotle's definition of tragic hero othello follow this definition and not only othello reprsent a hero as a general of an army ,he is the main character of the play.he draws compassion and sympathy from the audience making him the tragic hero.

5. Did the ‘Plot’ of those tragedies follow necessary rules and regulations proposed by Aristotle? (Like chain of cause and effect, principle of probability and necessity, harmonious arrangement of incidents, complete, certain magnitude, unity of action etc)

(5-A)."othello" follow necessary rules and regulations proposed by Aristotle.
