    How would you best describe a tragedy?
    It is a play that includes a hero that encounters a conflict and tragically dies. 
    A tragedy follows the fortunes of a protagonist and follows the hero to his death.
    It pits a tragic hero's human limitations (tragic flaw) against the larger forces of destiny and ends unhappily.  
    A tragedy is a very sad story that makes you cry and I don't know why we are going to even read it.
