"Are we forever condemned to Aristotle’s moral presuppositions, no matter how poorly they fit modern characters or situations? It not, how shall we go about finding new and more adequate taxonomic features? And at the other pole, how do we guard against runaway proliferation. What is our instrument of control? How we find our way amid so many potential variables with so few persuasive diagnostic tests?"
From Story and Discourse, Narrative Structure in Fiction and Film by Seymour Chatman - P89
