Tragedy


What is your definition of a tragedy? A tragic hero? Cite a work of literature that you have not studied in school that you think would qualify as a tragedy. Please elaborate on how it is a tragedy and which character you feel is the tragic hero of that work. (This can certainly be modern or contemporary literature...)

My definition of a tragedy is when a story or a play is really happy at times but very sad at others. A good example of this is the play Antigone whitch has sad and happy moments in it and a tragic hero (Antigone her self) who has flaws and strengths.
