Anagnorisis is a literary term for a sudden moment of recognition or revelation. It is the moment when a previously hidden element of a story's plot is discovered by a character and often by the audience as well.

The term “anagnorisis” was coined by the Greek philosopher Aristotle during his study of classical Greek drama.
