She moans. The bottle top falls. She. sinks to her knees. He picks up her inert figure and carries her to the bed. The hot trumpet and drwns from the Four Deuces sound loudly

He was as good as a lamb when I came back and he's really very, very ashamed of himsel

He falls to his knees on the steps and presses his face to her belly, curving a little with maternity. Her eyes go blind with tenderness as she catches his head and raises him level with her.

More evidence of Aristotle's biological classification infatuation. I'd want to see his phylogeny of words and their classifications
-
In the drama the result is far from answering to the poet's expectation.
This is very relatable where ever adaptions occur; how many good books/media have gotten relatively awful movie adaptations, mostly because the second writer tries to cram 20 hours worth of content into 2?

,-is. false inference.
I think this story is referring to Penelope's test in which her suitors had to try and 1) string Odysseus' bow and then 2) shoot an arrow through 12 axe heads. I don't understand how this is an example of a false inference, however. Help?

it merely · shocks u~.
I like this condemnation of shock value used as replacement for a good plot. It's like how horror movies use jump scares instead of building tension and fear in other ways

r, therefore, knows what is good or bad Tragedy, knows also about Epic poehy
I like how even as we read the document that serves as the foundation of western drama, Aristotle is stressing that these conventions he's observing are built upon each other. Nothing comes from nowhere (unless it's from Jakku).

elight to contemplate when repro-duced with minute fidelity
Sparknotes clarified the language of this for me: we like seeing fake dead bodies (how many procedural crime dramas are airing on TV this season?) but we really don't like seeing real ones.

The Dorian dialect of Greek (Doric) is considered part of the Northwestern Greek dialects. The Doric region lies north of Athens, accounting for how the dialectical study was useful to them in claiming the origins of Tragedy.

The Dorians were one of the main Greek ethnic groups involved in the Peloponnesian War along with the Ionians.

as ififwere not the imitation that makes the poet, btit the verse
Fliotsos connects Aristotle's work with classification in the natural world as groundwork for his aim to "observe and classify dramatic language" as he might with biological/zoological subjects. The classification of writing into a pseudo-phylogenetic tree starts here with the dichotomy of Poetry and Not Poetry with the defining factor being presence of memisis.
