Elements of a Tragedy
First, this requires the fall of a regal
person. Odds are, this will be a QUICK
and SUDDEN fall.
–How do we see this in Hamlet?
Social and Cosmological Consequences
• Remember when we discussed consequences
for disobeying the Divine Order?
• Not only would there be social ramifications
(shunned from family, friends, etc.), but there
would also be the potential for natural
disaster of some kind.
Determinism vs. Autonomy
• Fate v. Free Will
Basically, the development of events beyond a
person’s control, regarded as determined by a
supernatural power (FATE) versus free will
Determinism v. Autonomy
• Tragedies MUST have a balance of the two.
• In tragedies, we must consider how much fate
and free will affect the outcome of the work.
Can a tragedy be ALL fate? ALL free will?
Why or why not?
External Influences
• These, often supernatural
influences, will often
signify the role of FATE
What is one of the most
significant traits of a tragedy??
DEATH
Multiple deaths
Many many deaths
Tragic Nobility
• The hero MUST accept some measure of
responsibility and need SOME sense of a
dignified ending. This means no begging,
groveling, etc.
• The hero needs a dignified death
Tragedy Terms
Catharsis
• The purging of emotions or relieving of emotional
tensions (through art or music)
• Purging of pity and fear by the audience
• Fear comes from the justice that was carried out
• Pity comes from the fact that those who died
deserved it.
Anagnorisis

discovery

the downfall
