How does it takes place?

 

 Ans . Poetry has three phases where pleasure is talked about. In the first place, Aristotle says that tragedy cannot afford every kind of pleasure but only that which is proper to it and this comes about from pity and fear through imitation: In the second place, pleasure is said to be derived from completeness and wholeness of action in a plot. In the third instance, pleasure is said to be a result of music and spectacular effects. As the famous definition has it : " Tragedy , then , is an imitation of an action that is serious , complete , and of a certain magnitude : in language embellishes with each parts of the play in the form of action , not of narrative : through pity and fear effecting the purgation of Catharsis of these emotions . " 

From this it is clear that he done and catharsis is not mutually exclusive as both are caused by the arousal of pity and fear through imitation. Music causes pleasure and so does catharsis, as it is said in the Politics. Pleasures also caused by the completeness of action which in itself is meant to arouse pity and fear. Thus, even though, proper pleasure and catharsis alone can be regarded as the end of tragedy, as is often done by literary criticism. About the nature of proper pleasure, Aristotle states that every activity has its own proper pleasure. Thus proper pleasure in the comic, tragic, satyric, epic and nomadic genres will all be different. Aristotle does not propose that underlying all these delights there may be a common denominator, a literary of a poet joy.
