1 answer
The downfall of the hero in a tragedy is typically caused by a weak point in his character. The hero's own actions or flaws ultimately lead to their demise, rather than the actions of a villain. This flaw, often referred to as a tragic flaw or hamartia, is a characteristic that gradually leads the hero toward their tragic fate.
