Choose 1 of the prompts below to address in your paper:

1. Write an essay explaining how Sophocles? Oedipus exemplifies or refutes Aristotle?s definition of a tragic hero. Review Chapter 34 in your textbook for the background and overview of Aristotle?s concept of tragedy/the tragic hero and drama. This chapter also contains critical information on Sophocles and the play Oedipus. You may use any of the critical material as a secondary source, but remember to cite it correctly.
2. Discuss William Shakespeare?s Othello, the Moor of Venice as a tragedy. As defined by Aristotle, is it correct to label Othello a ?tragic hero? and to classify the play as an Aristotelian tragedy? Review Chapter 35 of your textbook for the background and overview of Shakespeare?s Othello, the Moor of Venice, and drama. This chapter also contains critical information on Shakespeare and the play Othello, the Moor of Venice. Also, see pp. 944?947 and pp. 1,112?1,115; this addresses Aristotle?s concept of tragedy and the tragic hero. You may use any of the critical material as a secondary source, but remember to cite it correctly.
3. Use evidence from Sophocles? Oedipus, from Shakespeare?s Othello, Moor of Venice, and from secondary sources to explain why you agree or disagree with this statement: ?The downfall of Oedipus is the work of the gods; the downfall of Othello is self-inflicted? (Should you choose this option, you need to read both Oedipus and Othello in full).
4. Discuss the author?s perception of death and the treatment of death in Everyman.
