<u>A. Comedy: Explores themes of love and includes happy endings.</u>

Many of Shakespearean comedy stories often explore themes of love, drama, conflicts between the main couple and family tensions that are solved at the end of the play, usually with a happy ending that involves marriage or a proposal. One example of this category is <em>Measure for Measure</em>, in which the Duke proposes marriage to Isabella (some of the main characters) at the end.

<u>B. Tragedy: Explores themes of personal flaws and downfall and evokes fear and pity from the audience, </u>

Shakespearean Tragedy often includes dramatic and serious scenes in which the characters show major personal flaws that eventually lead them to a downfall, like death. Through the story, the reader can also infer that the character is inevitably cursed by fate, in here the endings are not happy and all these elements evoke fear and pity from the audience. One famous classic example of this category is <em>Romeo and Juliet.</em>

<u>C. History: Aims to instill national price and dramatized the lives of monarchs.</u>

Shakespeare's Histories focus on English Monarchs like King John, Richard II, and Henry IV and on showing particular traits of them according to Shakespeare judgment, meaning that these plays were no historically accurate, instead, they were made to entertain. Through these plays, Shakespeare dramatizes civil wars and often aims to instill national pride.
