Over the week we talked a lot about tragedies. Initially I thought tragedies, although I have heard it in many sentences before, were only meant for stories. I thought that tragedies were only found in Shakespeare not in everyday occurrences. But you can find tragedies in everything... although that isn't a positive epiphany to have. But it's true bad things happen to everyone that could be classified as tragic. Although some are less tragic than others based on perspective. Some situations are tragic for the outsiders viewing the problems unfold. Although in others a tragedy occurs and only the people involved. Perception is key. Now learning that terrible things happen to everyone isn't the take home message I got from this week. How a writer is able to write about a tragic incident teaches you more than just about the situation. You can learn about the standards in society, the economic status, governmental rules and more. I can also learn from how the protagonist learns form the tragic event. https://www.britannica.com/art/tragedy-literature
