Answer:

Victor Frankenstein best exhibits the five characteristics of a tragic hero; Peripeteia, hamartia, hubris, anagnorisis, and fate. Victor possesses flaws that go down the pathway of downfall. It is Victor's ambition that steers him to experiment with science. The desire for knowledge without acknowledging morals is lethal.

Hamartia is a literary term that refers to a tragic flaw or error that leads to a character's downfall. In the novel Frankenstein, Victor Frankenstein's arrogant conviction that he can usurp the roles of God and nature in creating life directly leads to ruinous consequences for him, making it an example of hamartia.
