1. Look up what traits a tragic hero has (this would take you like 2 minutes on Google).
2. What traits does Oedipus have? examples
3. What traits does Oedipus not have? examples
4. What traits does Hamlet have? examples
5. What traits does Hamlet not have? examples

Put them in a chart if that helps you organize them. There's the body of your essay.

Edit:

Alternatively, you can use more of a block structure, in which case steps 2-5 become:
2. What traits do both men have? examples
3. What traits does neither man have? examples
4. What traits does one have but the other doesn't? examples

purely eager to construct on what Terry reported. The Tragic Hero of Greek Tragedy replace into regularly an upstanding, righteous individual of many virtues, who might subsequently have a farther distance to plumet whilst their downfall got here. In a widespread context, the tragedy of the plot is concerning the superb way the Tragic Hero, by some inherent or easy character flaw, triggers or initiates their very own wreck. interior the context of the Greek Tragedies, there replace right into a substantial ethical, and subsequently religious, ingredient to tragedy. on an identical time as Oedipus replace right into a beneficiant and noble character, he overstepped mortal obstacles. The severe know-how he displayed in fixing the riddle of the Sphinx went against the organic order, and subsequently, to restoration the stability, he had to be punished. the comparable could be seen interior the myths wherein Prometheus steals slightly the solar, Theseus travels to the underworld, or Daedalus crafts wings for himself and his son Icarus. on an identical time as such characters weren't inevitably evil, they disobeyed the obstacles of the mortal realm, and in such extra there replace into repercussion. on the different hand, the protagonists of the Shakespearean Tragedies have been regularly the sufferers of a few inherent character flaw - at the same time with Othelloss jealously, Macbeth's ambition, or Lear's satisfaction - and weren't almost as organic because of the fact the Greek heroes at the same time with Thyestes. one extra element i might upload is the thought of catharsis interior the Greek tragedy. Catharsis is a sort of 'purging of thoughts' experienced by ability of the objective industry in line with a tragedy. those thoughts, on an identical time as unhappy, have been meant to hold with them a feeling of order. on an identical time as you will be able to pity the Tragic Hero, you settle for their mistake and its outcomes - they're the architect of their very own abortion. As catharsis replace into one objective of tragedy, it replace into the hamartia of the Tragic Hero that made it achieveable.
