The real meaning is that people have both rational and emotional sides. Catharsis acts to bring both sides into balance. Everyone uses the modern psychoanalytic use of the word, and not what Aristotle meant. The more you know...
First video of yours I’ve seen and now looking forward to watching the rest. I remember being taught about catharsis in theatre class back in high school and being pretty sure I understood but not entirely certain. This video really clears up the original intention of the term outside of lay usage. I find the discussion of emotional impact in storytelling fascinating. Thanks for this!
I've had a debate with a friend as whether A Quiet Place, movie from couple years ago, fits this cathartic pattern..I'd say it does as it's in environs of a family.. but I think my friend avoids plays or films that invite fear.. but I told them there's often a process there..? Like a lot of movies like that there are the ",jump scares" but in context of a family bond they seem to be of secondary importance,.. but would have to watch to form an opinion there..?!
Unless you are getting a degree in philosophy or performance, they generally don't. It does seem that many folks could benefit from learning about philosophy at an earlier level.
I don't generally talk about my own education here, because philosophical arguments are things that can be judged on their own merits, and a tertiary education is neither necessary nor sufficient to understand them. The goal of the channel is to get philosophy out of the ivory tower, because it impacts us all.
@@CarneadesOfCyrene I feel like you definitely have succeeded, but at the same time it feels like your videos are the most underrated philosophy videos I've ever come across. They deserve so many more views than they have!
Hello Sir ... I need some help here , Aristotle's "Catharsis" is a predator version called a. Intentional fallacy b. Negative capability c. Affective fallacy d. Dissociation of sensibility Which one is correct ?

Aristotle: "Something wrong that is done knowingly is the second worst one."

Excellent video, thank you!
Great job.
The word cathersis first used by aristotle??
They obviously don’t teach this stuff any more. But they really should.

Where and when did you learn philosophy? Do you have a PhD, if you don't mind me asking?
