For Aristoteles, tragedy should have a pleasant language, capable of being easily understood by its audience, being capable of arousing reasoning even in the most primitive minds. The language cannot be superb, or unpleasant, but it must be a clean, easy language that does not overload the public and that has rhythm and harmony.
Aristoteles also claimed that the tragedy should be an imitation of complete action, but not an imitation of human beings. This is because the tragedy should represent an action of happiness and unhappiness related to the character and the actions that people are able to perform.
Finally, Aristoteles stated that the tragedy should be able to pass feelings of terror and commotion to the public, that is, it should be a highly emotional narrative.
