With reference to Aristotle's "Poetics," discuss the significance of "Hamartia."Please answer in detail.

The term hamartia was introduced in Aristotle's
Poetics. According to Aristotle, the term refers to mistakes, sins, to err,
and wrongdoings. Aristotle used this term to define a wrong committed against another
person.

Over time, like many words, the meaning of hamartia
has changed. Many critics have stated that Aristotle used the term wrongly in his text
and that the true meaning of the word was more geared toward the err one commits when
he/she does not know any better.

Aristotle's use of the
word tended to lean towards the tragic flaw of a person based upon their own limits or
weaknesses. While similar to that of alternative views, Aristotle's meaning encompasses
that the flaw does not concede to the fact that the one in error is not wholly innocent
and one cannot find him less morally at fault.
