In the tradition of classical tragedy, Dr. Faustus possesses the qualities of a tragic hero: he is a man of extraordinary talent and learning, yet he is ruined by his tragic flaw, namely his pride and overreaching ambition.

Doctor Faustus is not only a tragic drama of ambition, sin, and downfall, but also a play rich in comic elements and humour.

In Macbeth by William Shakespeare, darkness, tumult, and storm are not merely elements of setting but powerful symbols that mirror the moral chaos and psychological disturbance within the characters.

The plot of Macbeth is set in motion ostensibly by the prophecy of the three witches.

Role of Ariel in the play The Tempest is very important. In The Tempest, William Shakespeare introduces a rich variety of characters, each contributing to the play’s themes of power, freedom, and reconciliation.

Yet beneath its themes of power, forgiveness, and reconciliation, we find humour and comic relief in the play The Tempest.

Both the scenes the sleep-walking and dagger-scene are very significant in the play Macbeth. In the sleep-walking scene, A doctor has kept watch for two nights with a waiting gentlewoman, that he may observe the fit of Lady Macbeth.

“The Tempest” is a romance. There is a blending of romance and realism in the Tempest. It is a separate category of plays.

Macbeth, like several of Shakespeare's plays, contains supernatural figures in the witches and ghosts it introduces. These produce an atmosphere of fate and mystery. But the tragic action of Macbeth is not influenced by their presence. That action is the outcome of passion and emotions struggling in the hearts of its characters.

There is a comparison of the fall of Macbeth with that of Satan in play Macbeth. The Shakespearean tragic hero is a person of high degree or of public importance.
