Plato's objection & Aristotlelian Theory :

  Plato 's Objection and Aristotelian Theory   : 

Question : 

How far do you agree with Plato’s objection to freedom of expression and artistic liberty enjoyed by creative writers? Name the texts (novels, plays, poems, movies, TV soaps etc which can be rightfully objected and banned with reference to Plato’s objections)

  ->     after understanding this  thing it is quite difficult to choose one thing because everything has its good side or bad side...  But I am not agree with Plato's objections because creater should have its own freedom to creat the things. Its depends upon you what you want to get it from good things or bad things. If we don't like some thing which is not good then we should not watch or read it. In the universe there are also mixture of good and bad things. Any literary work is out come of observing the things and experience of the society. So we can't say that literature makes people bad. Because its existence in the society first then afterwards reflect in the literature. There are many good serials for example "MAN VS WILD" on discovery channel.

 The other example is " KON BANEGA CARORPATI" on Sony channel. So watch like this serials we get more knowledge about things and it increased our knowledge about the world.

             I want to give another  example of  "TARAK MEHETA KA ULTA CASHMA " it is a comedy serial. It gives us many moral lessons about life and gives a different way to see the world.

Question : 

With reference to the literary texts you have studied during B.A. programme, write brief note on the texts which followed Aristotelian literary tradition (i.e. his concept of tragedy, catharsis, tragic hero with hamartia etc)

->    During my B.A studies I study  " OTHELLO" by William Shakespeare. It is a tragedy of Othello who was the protagonist of the play. It follows Aristotle 's literary tradition. Jealousy of Iago creates misunderstanding between Othello and his wife Desdemona. Othello thinks that his wife was not faithful towards him and the action of Othello lead this story towards tragic end. Othello never talk once with his wife he believed Iago blindly. He kills his wife and after knowing that his wife was innocence. He feels guilty and after this he kills himself. So the play ends with attainment of understanding and resolution of fear and pity. It makes tragedy.

Question : 

 Did the ‘Plot’ of those tragedies follow necessary rules and regulations proposed by Aristotle? (Like chain of cause and effect, principle of probability and necessity, harmonious arrangement of incidents, complete, certain magnitude, unity of action etc)

  ->   I also studied play " GHASHIRAM KOTWAL" by vijay tendulkar. It is a tragedy of Ghashiram. This play following all rules and regulations of Aristotelian literary tradition of time , place and action. Plot is an organization of events which from the story of the play. In this plot shows that good man suffering due to his own faults.This play is a powerful satire on the power of politics. Also shows lust of power. Ghashiram 's lust of power leads him towards the tragic end .A lust of power make him soo blind that for the power of became kotwal of poona he gives his daughter to Nana phadnavis. At the end of the play Nana killed his daughter after this thing he realised his fault. At the end he was killed by people of poona. Tendulkar include the visual language of movement of expression . so it was tragic end of Ghashiram kotwal.
