Aristotle's "Poetics" challenges conventional notions of art and storytelling by dissecting the fundamental elements of drama, particularly tragedy. In this provocative work, Aristotle contends that the purpose of literature is not merely to entertain, but to evoke catharsis—a purging of emotions—in its audience. He argues that tragedy, with its depiction of human suffering and the inevitable downfall of its protagonists, serves as a powerful tool for moral and emotional reflection. Aristotle's assertion that poetry is more philosophical and profound than history challenges the prevailing belief in the supremacy of factual accounts. By elevating fiction to the realm of philosophical inquiry, "Poetics" ignites a contentious dialogue about the role of art in society and its capacity to illuminate the human condition through imaginative storytelling.
