Elements of tragedy, are that a protagonist has to suffer some kind of
separation from his society.He also has to
make some kind of mistake or show bad judgment.There are usually deaths which more often, occur
at the end of the play in the same way that comedies typically can end
in a marriage or a feast. These elements include:
1) Supernatural elements (Paulina's mysterious supernatural powers)
2) Tragic hero : person with noble qualities and a flaw in his character(Perdita)
3) Tragic error: some disorder that has been committed against the laws if nature and needs to be corrected. (Leonte's allegations towards Hermiones)
4) Conflict :with country or with the hero himself (Leontes' inner battles)
5) Revenge :the hero is usually often revenge or he is being avenged (apollo's revenge on Leontes
6) Sad ending: the death or destruction (death of hermiones and mamillius)
7) Comic relief : some light scenes to relieve the stress of tragic events (Autolycus)
8) Isolation of main character (Everyone turned against Leontes because of his allegations towards Hermiones)
