Abigail Williams A Tragic Hero

A conniving liar, an adulterous, and power hungry are just a few of the characteristics of who in my opinion, I feel is the tragic hero in Arthur Miller’s “The Crucible” which is none other than a young girl who goes by the name of Abigail Williams. The author, Arthur Williams, has labeled his story a tragedy, but I believe that it is only a tragedy based on your tragic hero. Consequently, since I’ve chosen Abigail Williams as my tragic hero is does not make the story a tragedy. A tragedy is a play, novel or other narrative depicting serious and important events in which the main character comes to an unhappy end. I believe that it is not a tragedy because Abigail Williams, the tragic hero that I’ve chosen, does not have an unhappy ending,
and although the tragic hero has many misfortunes in a tragedy and it’s often caused by another character, this is not the case because she brought all of her misfortunes upon herself.
