 Meaning: “the expression of the meaning in words”  Proper & appropriate to the plot, characters, and end of the tragedy  The expression of feeling in words

1. Clear 2. Great usage of proper words 3. Words are appropriate to the character 4. Writing is metaphorical (in high level) 5. Uses figures of speech

Usage of: 1. Commands & statements 2. Prayers 3. Threats 4. Questions & answers

 Musical element of the chorus  Regarded as one of the actors - Helps unite the plot

 Little to the subject  Sung as mere interludes  Introducing choral interlude - not different from transferring a speech

 Least connected to Literature  Recognizes the emotional attraction  Forms a unity in two ways 1. Signifying one thing 2. Consisting of several parts linked together

 Depends more on the machinist than the poet  Poets that relied heavily on Spectacle were shallow and their writing was weak

 End of the tragedy  Has generated considerable debate

 Meaning- “purging”- medical metaphor  “Aesthetic Pleasure” is proper to tragedy

 Tragedy creates pity and fear in order to help you get rid of these feelings in excess
