Aaliyah COULD have been what you called a Tragic Hero/ Heroine; but she still had a much more promising life and career ahead of her. She left us way too soon and even though some wouldn't call her the next Aretha Franklin or Patti Labelle or Whitney Houston, she was a very good singer and she gave so much of her self.

Not just to her family and close friends; but she dedicated alot of her time to her fans. Her music, the few movies we were blessed with seeing her in and visions of what was to come are something that people need to consider and be thankful for.

The way she lived her life. She was raised as Roman Catholic and had very strong beliefs and faith in God. She was always smiling and had a pleasant appearance even when she was at her worst of moods.

She may have only been here for 22 short years, but she did a good job with having her life and future planned out accordingly and she set an example of being positive and being able to live your life to the fullest and just being happy and thanking God for what you've got, even if it's not the best at that time.

Not everyone would agree she was a "Tragic Hero" but if you take a look at what she was throughout the years we got to see her on the scene, to many she was.

Is Jimi Hendrix a tragic hero?

A tragic hero is someone who's actions where heroic despite a bad outcome. A good example of tragic hero's are the soldiers who were defeated at the Alamo, they knew they were outnumbered and that defeat was inevitable but they stayed and fought bravely anyways. They could have fled or surrendered. Generally the same factors as ordinary heroism are what makes one a tragic hero. There is nothing heroic about Jimi Hendrix. Despite his success as a musician he died at his own hand, a result of a drug overdose. It does not make him a tragic hero because he was not a hero to begin with and there is nothing heroic about dying from drug use. A tragic death does not make someone a hero.

What would you expect a tragic hero to display?

In his "Poetics," Aristotle explains that a tragic hero is going to evoke in the viewer (or spectator) either great pity or great fear, due to the tragic circumstances in which the hero is involved. Such heroes will occupy noble or otherwise prominent positions in life or society and, most importantly, will contribute to their own downfall through a personal flaw of some kind. For example, the tragic hero, Oedipus, had the tragic flaw of pride (perhaps also a severe temper).

Why is Creon the tragic hero in 'Antigone'?

Creon is not the tragic hero in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, a hero is the main character, the holder of great powers, and the doer of great deeds. That hero is tragic when his life takes an unfortunate turn. The description of the hero does not fit Theban King Creon, who is capable of no great deed or power. But the description of tragic does fit Creon, as a tragic figure in a tragic play about the tragedy of the tragic heroine Antigone.
