6 Part 4 Romeo and Juliet! Tragedy is kind of drama that presents a serious subject matter about human suffering and corresponding terrible events in a dignified manner. A tragic hero is a person of noble birth with heroic or potentially heroic qualities. This person is fated by the Gods or by some supernatural force to doom and destruction or at least to great suffering. But the hero struggles mightily against this fate and this cosmic conflict wins our admiration.

7 Romeo’s Tragic Flaw Lack of ‘Moderation’
A Tragic flaw is a literary device that can be defined as a trait in a character leading to his downfall and the character is often the hero of the literary piece. Lack of ‘Moderation’ Examples in the Play: 1. Romeo is always extreme. He gets very deeply depressed and extremely happy. 2. He is quick to fight Tybalt and Paris 3. He is quick to commit suicide 4. He is quick to marry Juliet even after the Friar says he loved Rosaline quickly, fell out of love with her quickly, cried over her, then fell in love with Juliet at mere sight and a kiss. All this leads to his downfall. Romeo cannot escape this personality flaw that leads to his downfall and to both his and Juliet’s deaths.
