is a drama that ends in catastrophe-most often death-for the main character and often for other important characters as well

This character also has one or more fatal character flaws-a weakness or a serious error in judgment-that leads to his or her downfall.
Although the events in a tragedy are often set in motion by an action of the tragic hero, fate may also seem to play a role in the course that the events take.

By providing contrast, comic relief helps the audience to absorb the earlier events in the plot and get ready for the ones to come.

By using a foil, the writer highlights the other character’s traits or attitude.
