This was a disappointing conversation; the titular question is never answered & instead we get only examples. To fill this void, try this out on the few tragic dramas which have come down to us from classical Athens. A tragedy involves a hero or heroine with a tragic character flaw, often hubris, which leads to a reprehensible action for which they are eventually punished. Tragedies are didactic works in that they are cautionary tales to educate the audience while entertaining them.
