Some examples of tragic heroes in fiction include Oedipus from Sophocles' play "Oedipus Rex," Hamlet from Shakespeare's play "Hamlet," and Jay Gatsby from F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel "The Great Gatsby." These characters possess noble traits or aspirations but ultimately meet a downfall due to a fatal flaw or external circumstances.
I think the tragic heroes are Rome and Juliet
