Aristotle arrived at a very influential definition of tragedy=”the imitation of an action that is serious and complete, achieving a catharsis through incidents arousing pity and terror. Aristotle also observed that the protagonist is led into a fatal calamity by his ‘tragic flaw’ this often takes the form of excessive pride of self-confidence punished by the gods or fates.
