Ancient Greek definition of tragedy by Aristotle T-Shirt

This is Aristotle's definition of tragedy in Greek: «Ἔστιν οὖν τραγωδία μίμησις πράξεως σπουδαίας καὶ τελείας, μέγεθος ἐχούσης, ἡδυσμένῳ λόγῳ, χωρὶς ἑκάστῳ τῶν εἰδὼν ἐν τοῖς μορίοις, δρώντων καὶ οὐ δι' ἀπαγγελίας, δι' ἐλέου καὶ φόβου περαίνουσα τὴν τῶν τοιούτων παθημάτων κάθαρσιν». It loosely means "Tragedy is the imitation of an action that is serious and also as having magnitude, complete in itself." He continues, "Tragedy is a form of drama exciting the emotions of pity and fear". From Aristotle's Poetics. In the background are the theatrical masks, a symbol of drama internationally. You may edit the colour of the masks.
