ARISTOTLE’S POETICS EXPLAINED
Whether they’re aware of it or not, storytellers have been influenced by Aristotle’s Poetics for centuries. In the philosopher’s text, one of the first dedicated to literary theory, Aristotle lays out the groundwork for what he believes should be in every story. In this video, we will break down Poetics by Aristotle, hoping that writers can understand where these storytelling conventions come from and how they might use them in their own work.
WHAT IS ARISTOTLE’S POETICS
Aristotle (384-322 BCE) was a Greek philosopher who shared his thoughts and theories on everything from politics, art, science, economics, and philosophy. Poetics is the earliest surviving work of Greek literary theory. Aristotle uses the text to argue for specific elements of storytelling, specifically those that apply to tragic storytelling. Today, writers working in tragedy or not still borrow specific notions from Poetics, and its influence cannot be understated.
THEORY OF TRAGEDY
Aristotle presents the following hierarchy of importance to elements that should be included in a story: plot, character, thought, diction, spectacle, and song.
Plot - For Aristotle, this is the most critical aspect of a story. He argues they should have a beginning, middle, and end, along with crucial story beats like peripeteia (reversal of fortune), anagnorisis (critical discovery), and catharsis (emotional relief). He also argues that plots should hinge on causality, where each event leads directly to the next and creates a cohesive narrative.
Character - In general, Aristotle believes that characters should essentially be good. They may dabble in moral gray areas, but their intentions and goals should be righteous.
Thought - Stories should make the audience think and draw connections between what is happening in the story and how we live our own lives. Today, we might understand this as the “theme” of the story.
Diction - Aristotle also valued elements of diction, including word choice, grammatical decisions, and sentence structure. In other words, they should be well-written.
Spectacle - This is primarily focused on the story's presentation to heighten the drama in the text. For example, a typical conversation around contemporary films is how spectacle overshadows the plot and characters.
Song - Musical accompaniment has been a part of theater and film productions from their beginnings. And while music does enhance the storytelling, it is still at the bottom of Aristotle’s list.
Aristotle’s Poetics is a fascinating text to study - some of it is outdated, but knowing how and why we tell stories the way we do is valuable knowledge for any storyteller.

This literally reminds me of “this character isn’t likable”, which I’m tired of hearing in reviews. A character doesn’t have to be likable. We just need to understand their motivations. What they (critics and audiences) deem an “unlikable character”, usually means there’s complexity and actual humanity in our protagonist. No human I know is good and perfect 100% of the time. We are unlikable to a percentage of those around us, make questionable decisions based in our bias and experiences, because being human is being complex. Flawed, real people make for the most compelling stories that have moved me or stayed with me over the years.

Yes, the most fascinating stories to me are ones that can get me invested in despicable characters. But I think that most people would agree on this, and when they complain about an unlikeable character, they really mean an evil character _with unclear motivations_. They just don't know their Aristotle.

@@paperclip_animations Exactly. I don’t pick my movies based on how likable (aka perfect) the protagonist is. I’d only watch popcorn movies then, and miss out on an array of complex characters and brilliant story telling that asks questions, that turns a mirror onto society, that makes me question my choices and opinions. Unlikable characters can do that, and pull strong emotions out of me.

@@mumiemonstret People were saying this about Annette Bening’s character in Nyad. She isn’t remotely evil. She’s a regular woman with opinions, agency, character and determination. And this was quite literally critics’ complaint when reviewing the film. I’m tired of hearing that word, when the character is just human like the rest of us. As I said originally, she’s flawed, like a real human being, and in this case, Nyad is based in a real human being. Go figure.

This is a good descriptor of the Poetics. My first ever university assignment was to challenge their validity for modern drama making. They are good markers for building a downfall plot - as they were developed in discussing Sophocles. Adhere too closely and one just flattens their plot.

I think Marvel’s movies are becoming more and more about spectacles , pushing down other aspects of film making of Aristotle as secondary. Martin Scorsese being a follower of the approach of Aristotle ( Cape Fear) considers marvel movies as THEME PARKS.

I always learn so much from these, notably what you taught about Aristotle's view on character, and how they must be good and we should approve of them, even if they aren't always in the right, and I see that more and more with the main characters in old crime films. They often make lots of mistakes but you believe in them because you understand their goals and we want to see them succeed. Keep the great content coming please!

Great explanation and a huge help for all those who are trying to write that original, gripping feature, like myself. While I mention that, I also want to highlight that sometimes structure is not as important. If you are able to tap into a feeling or memory so well that you just want to recreate it on the big screen, that too works! Yet if you somehow want to mix both, a brilliant Filmmaker and Film that I would nudge you towards would be Three Colors: Blue. It consists of all these elements, yet manages to bring in a seamless texture that plays out more like you were posited inside a person's memories.

Excellent rundown but I don't know if spectacle + song is best described as the "cherry on top". Music oftentimes doesn't just enhance, but **drives** the emotional sentiment of a plot. Many great movies would feel slow and practically unwatchable without the intuitve emotional drive of the music. I mean, we often love song as storytelling in of itself. Evolutionarily, music long preceeded articulated language and is absolutely foundational to the way we communicate and perceive others. It is at least partially foundational in many movies, where story is consolidated and context remains unarticulated, unlike in novels.

It's just by Aristotle's analysis, as he considers other elements more crucial like plot

​@@StudioBinderabsolutely, was just the "cherry on top" analogy that inspired a defense in the moment. Great video and Aristotle was right. Bad stories with great music are obviously still bad stories.

Can you explain the bare bones of what I would call "Scene Emotion" or "Scene Design" I was struggling to write my scenes until I found the emotional heart of it but even with that the scenes failed because I didn't understand the medium and execution of how a scene should be designed. For example, Tarantino writes very suspenseful hitchcock sequences that explode but mainly in dialogue, Scorsesse focuses on just the raw humanity at it's worst and best with his emphasis on improv, Nolan focuses on more mind games and less emotion. People always say write what you feel but they never tell you the part about the execution of how to deliver those emotions that you feel. Once I figured this out it changed everything for me but would like your take on it. In addition, a look at anime and how they do action sequences is interesting because in every battle they always intercut scenes of backstory to show that the only way for the character to move forward is too overcome this internal flaw but it's just done so differently in Western films mainly due to the medium I believe.

You left out the best part of the diction: "Molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, By then it was nothing to me but *blinding.* The shadows betray you, Because they belong to *ME!"*

Great video Sir. «ἔστιν οὖν τραγῳδία Μίμησις πράξεως σπουδαίας καὶ τελείας μέγεθος ἐχούσης, ἡδυσμένῳ λόγῳ χωρὶς ἑκάστῳ τῶν εἰδῶν ἐν τοῖς μορίοις, δρώντων καὶ οὐ δι᾽ ἀπαγγελίας, δι᾽ ἐλέου καὶ φόβου περαίνουσα τὴν τῶν τοιούτων παθημάτων κάθαρσιν.» ‘“Tragedy, is an imitation [mimēsis] of an action that is serious- heroic, complete, and of a certain magnitude, by means of language enriched with all kinds of ornament, each used separately in the different parts of the play, representing people in action and not using narrative, so, through pity and fear effects the proper purgation [catharsis]-the proper relief, of these and similar emotions.”

Over time, have we reached any points where these structures become too predictable and audiences look for less conventional approaches? Will we have a “post-structure” era where narratives become more chaotic and complex to reflect the randomness of life? I’m sure there are a handful of directors and productions that have done, but curious to see it at scale Likely won’t be as simple for us to process as viewers but maybe that’s exactly what we need
