* BeamMeUpScotty: The "rule" of "InMediasRes" is often attributed to Aristotle, when it actually comes from the poet Horace. In fact, especially considering what the term has come to mean, Aristotle actually [[AvertedTrope didn't advocate it at all]]. As the main page quote indicates, he argued for the three-act structure of "Beginning", "Middle", and "End"--which InMediasRes defies.

* CommonKnowledge: Though this text is the origin of many important literary concepts, it did not, as many claim, invent the concept of the TragicHero or the FatalFlaw. The concept of the "hero" isn't really part of Aristotle's terminology concerning character, and his concept of "hamartia" (a mistake or misjudgement that leads a character to misfortune), is not the same thing as a FatalFlaw.
