Tragedy Elements and themes of tragedy Protagonist-the main character in the story Family Time (past, present, future) Plot Choices, actions, & fate Audience

“ Plot is the soul of tragedy” Aristotle Tragic stories and plot usually come from history A heroic, privileged, or respected person begins to suffer from loss and destruction A character’s choices or history determine future events that cannot be avoided end in sadness and often death “Against our will comes wisdom, by the grace of God” Sophocles “We learn by suffering” = apathomathos in Greek

Family Protagonist is deeply connected to their family “Family Curse” - family ties and history limit the protagonist’s choices. - a protagonist is fated to their future Like the Capulets and Montagues How did the family feud fate Romeo and Juliet ?

Time Eternal time and Present time Present time is made up of history, and future -things that happened in the past -choices made today, consequences tomorrow Tragic time is unstoppable, irreversible, too short

Choices, Actions and Fate Protagonist often doesn’t understand the choices they make. They suffer from the consequences of their choices, make involuntary mistakes. (Gr. Hamartia) - choosing the right thing, but it turns out bad. - unintended consequences Conflict between individual choice and fate

Audience Knows more than the characters Has a long view of time Cannot easily tell who is good or bad. -due to hamartia Often connects with the protagonists decisions and suffering. A good tragedy often leads to “catharsis”, amazement and wonder at life, and even happier.
