Anagnorisis

Anagnorisis is a literary term that refers to a moment in a story or play where a character experiences a sudden realization or understanding about their own identity, circumstances, or situation. This moment of recognition often leads to a significant change in the character's beliefs, motivations, or actions, and can be a turning point in the plot of the narrative. Anagnorisis is commonly used in literature to create dramatic tension, reveal hidden truths, or to facilitate character development.
