If you do not have access to a scanner, bring the illustration to class the day before the literature circle session so that I can scan, save, and upload it for you.

  3. Tragedy • An action of great magnitude is at the center of the plot. • Pathos (that which evokes pity or sympathy) is an essential element of the play. • The plot is carefully sequenced, moving from the complication to the unraveling or denouement. • Complication: Prologue to turning point • Denouement: Turning point to the resolution • Complicated plots involve reversal (peripeteia), which is a sudden change or reversal of circumstance or fortune, and recognition (anagnorisis), which is a change from ignorance to knowledge. • A catastrophe occurs, which usually spirals outward and evokes pathos; not only does the tragic hero suffer, but his family also suffers. • A catharsis (a purification or purging of emotions; a spiritual renewal) occurs.
