Aristotle's Poetics

According to my understanding I do not agree with plato's objection because all the writers have their freedom to express their views or ideas .         During my B.A studies I study    " 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.

Here we discuss the word  ' POST-TRUTH'.        Post truth is a new word , it has been chosen as the word of the year in 2016 by  'Oxford English Dictionary' .
