Question

Which story premise is most clearly a classic tragedy

Answer 1

Answer:

A. A sorcerer's mad quest for power ends up destroying him in the end.

Explanation:

Option A is the correct answer.

A classical tragedy is known to be a story of a hero/heroine who actually goes through a reversal of fortune experience which takes place due to the gods interference as a result of excessive pride on the part of the character.

Classic tragedy is known to be one of the first tragedies that came around from ancient civilizations. One of the things that differentiates the classic tragedy from the normal tragedy is that in the classic tragedy, the person involved is unique and ends up bringing his own downfall while in normal tragedy, the person is normal and the tragedy just happens to the main character.

From the above selected answer, we can deduce that the sorcerer ended up destroying himself due to his mad quest for power.
