Was "Othello" a tragedy, and why.

Miss Kylie Gray C/- Culture Magazine 200 Shakespeare Street Playborough Brisbane. Qld 4000 Hello Kylie Thank you for your question regarding "How does Othello fulfill the requirements to be described as a classic tragedy?" The definition of what makes a Shakespearean tragedy is a very deep subject to get into, especially just in a short letter. There has been entire reports based on the definitions of what makes a Shakespearean tragedy. In this letter I will …

…all these rules, it is therefore inherent that in Shakespearean tragedy that the hero is mostly what makes it a tragic story. So to conclude the simply definition of a Shakespearean tragedy is; a story of a hero, that under great circumstances of exceptional calamity is lead to his death by honorable means, and there is no doubt that Othello is one of Shakespeare's greatest tragedies. Hopefully this has helped you in your studies. Sincerely
