Aristotle, Poetics - Elements And Definitions Of Tragedy - Sadler's Lectures

Aristotle, Poetics - Elements And Definitions Of Tragedy - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle' work, the Poetics, focusing on Aristotle's definition of tragedy, which runs: "Tragedy, then, is mimesis of an action which is elevated, complete, and of magnitude; in language embellished by distinct forms in its sections; employing the mode of enactment, not nar­rative; and through pity and fear accomplishing the catharsis a of such emotions. I use "embellished'' for lan­guage with rhythm and melody, and "distinct forms" for the fact that some parts are conveyed through metrical speech alone, others again through song." He also identifies six parts or elements of tragedy, provides definitions of them, and sets out their order of importance: "Plot, then, is the first principle and, as it were, soul of tragedy, while character is secondary. (A similar principle also holds in painting: if one were to cover a surface ran­domly with the finest colours, one would provide less pleasure than by an outline of a picture.) Tragedy is mimesis of action, and it is chiefly for the sake of the action that it represents the agents. Third in importance is thought: that is, the capacity to say what is pertinent and apt, which in formal speeches is the task of politics and rhetoric. The earliest poets made people speak polit­ically, present day poets make them speak rhetorically. Character is .that which reveals moral choice-that is, when otherwise unclear, what kinds of thing an agent chooses or rejects ( which is why speeches in which there is nothing at all the speaker chooses or rejects contain no character); while thought covers the parts in which they demonstrate that something is or is not so, or declare a general view. Fourth is the diction of the spoken sec­tions: as stated earlier, I define diction as expression through choice of words-something which has the same capacity in both verse and prose. Of the remainder, lyric poetry is the greatest embellishment, while spectacle is emotionally potent but falls quite outside the art and is not integral to poetry: tragedy' capacity is independent of performance and actors, and, besides, the costumier's art has more scope than the poet's for rendering effects of spectacle."

Aristotle, Poetics - Three Distinctions In Mimesis - Sadler's Lectures

Aristotle, Poetics - Three Distinctions In Mimesis - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle' work, the Poetics, focusing on three key distinctions he brings up early on in the work, which bear upon different kinds of mimetic arts (including tragedy, comedy, epic, other poetry, and musical performances). The distinction is between the: Media of the mimetic work (en hois) Objects (or content) of the mimetic work (ha) Mode (or how) of the mimetic work (hōs) The six parts or elements of tragedy fall into this Diction and Lyric Poetry are the Media Plot, Character, and Thought are the Objects Spectacle is the Mode To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO You can find over 3000 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler Purchase Aristotle's Poetics - https://amzn.to/3UcswRY

N.K. Jemisin, How Long Until Black Future Month - Those Who Stay And Fight - Sadler's Lectures

N.K. Jemisin, How Long Until Black Future Month - Those Who Stay And Fight - Sadler's Lectures

This lecture discusses key ideas from the fantasy and science fiction author N.K. Jemisin's short story The Ones Who Stay And Fight, found in her work How Long Til Black Future Month? This story is a response to and homage about Ursula K Leguin's short story Those Who Walk Away From Omelas, and attempts to present a picture of and justification for a utopian civilization. One interesting feature of the story is that Jemisin addresses an outraged and angry interlocutor from our society who considers inequality and difference to be naturally interconnected. The utopian society of Um-Helat has people, "social workers" who protect it from the contamination of evil mindsets and actions coming from our world.

Alasdair MacIntyre - How To Appear Virtuous Without Being So - Inadequate Shared Public Morality

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th and 21st century philosopher and moral theorist, Alasdair MacIntyre's essay "How To Seem Virtuous Without Actually Being So".

He provides three examples where some adequate understanding of virtues in conflict would be needed.
