Tragic hero

edit

Erm, it's not my page. I may have tidied it slightly once or twice and added a sentence or two, but the material on it is pretty poor and I'd hardly want to claim any ownership of it. However, yes, a hero is only a tragic hero when he/she appears in a tragedy. That's what a tragic hero is. DionysosProteus (talk) 13:37, 25 October 2008 (UTC)Reply

That's not the way the term is used in critical literature. It's specific to drama and describes the protagonist of a tragedy. DionysosProteus (talk) 16:33, 25 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
