The main goal of a tragedy is to explore serious and somber themes. Tragedies often involve the downfall or suffering of the protagonist, emphasizing themes such as human suffering, morality, and the consequences of actions. Their aim is to evoke emotional responses from the audience and provide a cathartic experience, rather than entertaining or provoking laughter as comedies do.
