SORU: ?
It refers to the defect of character that brings about the
hero or heroine’s downfall in a tragedy. It is an error of
judgement which arises from ignorance or some moral
shortcoming. Pride or overweening self-confidence
leads a protogonist to disregard a divine warning or to
violate a very important moral law. Discussing tragic
hero in Poetics, Aristotle points out that the tragic hero
ought to be a man whose fortune comes to him, not
through vice or depravity, but by some error. For
example, in Sophocles' Oedipus the King, Oedipus kills
his father, Lauis, from impulse, and marries his mother,
Jocasta, out of ignorance.
