Agenda Drill and review Finish chapter three and discussion. Aristotle’s definition of the tragic hero. Apply definition to both Brutus from Caesar and Okonkwo from TFA. Read chapter 4.

Learning Targets: I can apply Aristotle’s definition of a tragic hero to two characters from important literary works. I can cite strong and thorough textual evidence that supports my inferences and analysis of the text. I can analyze the development of the theme throughout a text including how it is shaped by specific details and events. I can analyze a point of view or cultural experience as reflected in a work from outside the US.

Aristotle’s Tragic Hero Someone who is “highly renowned and prosperous” Must fall from fortune Has a tragic flaw: a character flaw that causes the hero’s undoing; a weakness (i.e., pride, jealousy) Somewhat responsible for own downfall Recognizes flaw after downfall and accepts consequences (may be enlightened by experience) Suffering arouses sympathy from the audience Audience can relate to hero being “human”
