| Summary |
Independent Scholar Tobin Nellhaus provides an introduction to catharsis - a term associated with Aristotle's definition of tragedy and the purgation of emotions. Nellhaus explores various interpretations of catharsis and considers how the relationship it draws between the play, the audience and a particular set of emotions, such as fear and pity, has developed significantly over time. |
