Perepeteia is the tragic irony. It means reversal and Aristotle has used it as Reversal of Fate. This occurs the very moment when oedipus finds that he is the son of Laius And jocasta from the shephered. Aristotle considered it the best tragedy when the hero finds the truth and it coiincides with the reversal of his fortunes.

Catastrophe is the disaster of play. This occurs with the downfall of hero. Jocasta's suicide and Oedipus blinding himself and the kingdom taken away from him is the catastrophe of this play.

Anagnorisis is the acceptence of fate by the hero. Tragic hero understanding what has happened. In other words he realises his hamartia(tragic flaw, committed unknowingly).

The hero accepts that the mistake was hisand that bhe could have done nothing to stop the inevitable chain of events which started after his hamartia.

What is Aristotle's Chain of Cause and Effect?

Aristotle's idea of the Chain of Cause and Effect is a concept in which all events are interconnected and influenced by preceding events. He believed that all actions have a cause, and that cause will lead to an effect, creating a chain of events that govern the natural world. This concept is foundational to his philosophy on causation and the study of metaphysics.
