What is the main difference between a shakespearian comedy and a shakespearean tragedy?
The ToneThe main difference between Shakepearean comedy and Shakespearean tragedy is the tone. The comedy is designed to be funny, while the tragedy will be sad... that is the main difference, and one that you can predict before even reading them. The difference is that a comedy has a light romantic spot to it while usually the tragedies have killing and despair. People laugh in a comedy and people cry in a tragedy. Well, a comedy is supposed to make people laugh. A tragedy often makes people cry. The EndingA Shakespearean comedy, by definition, is one of Shakespeare's stories with a happy ending. The difference between that and a tragedy is that tragedies always have a sad ending. The use of actual jokes and comedy didn't play a part in creating either genre, because it, especially innuendo, was used in both types. The simple answer is that in a tragedy they die at the end, in a comedy they get married. The comedies end happily, usually with everybody getting married. The tragedies end sadly, usually with everybody getting dead. A comedy has a happy ending. A tragedy has a sad ending. The comedy ends happily but the tragedy always ends in death. Traditionally a comedy will end in a wedding and a tragedy with the death of a main character. In the comedies a whole lot of people get married at the end. In the tragedies a whole lot of people die at the end. One ends with a smile; one ends in tears. The PlotComedy leads towards resolution and tragedy leads towards devastation. There can be funny parts in a tragedy and sad parts in a comedy.
Why is tragedy often called the most optimistic?
Because, as Eugene Ionesco said, the characters in a tragedy have a tragic fate, but a fate of their own nonetheless. The characters in a comedy in the absurd genre (The Bald Primadonna, Waiting for Godot...), though not to be taken seriously, have no fate, which can be considered even more tragic. They can be deemed of being soul-less puppets.

Is Romeo and Juliet a comedy of tragedy?
Some people want to label "Romeo and Juliet" as a Tragicomedy. Generally these are people who are hung up on the idea that a tragedy cannot be about ordinary people--it has to be about kings or rulers. Romeo and Juliet is not, hence their desire to find a different label for it. However, Tragicomedy is what Beaumont and Fletcher called their plays, which look a lot like tragedies (even to the extent of having royal or noble characters), but do not end with a pile of corpses. Shakespeare and Fletcher's The Two Noble Kinsmen is a tragicomedy, in which one of the kinsmen does survive and marries the girl just like in a comedy. They even find a husband for the jailor's lunatic daughter. But Romeo and Juliet is the exact opposite of this: up until the beginning of Act 3 it looks a lot like a comedy, but ends up in a pile of corpses. Some people have said that "comitragedy" might be an appropriate term, but it is simpler to say that it is not a Tragicomedy, and can well be described as a tragedy.

What is the difference between tragedy comedy melodrama and farces?
Tragedy has a protagonist (the main character who gains the audience's sympathy) who possesses character flaws that lead to his own undoing-he is himself responsible for the disaster that befalls him. Comedy is a humorous treatment of an otherwise dramatic, or serious subject-while the plot may have its characters doing silly or absurd things, it also allows moments of serious reflection and may even be said to teach a lesson. Farce is humor for sheer enjoyment-characters are not usually as three-dimensional as in comedy. Just as farce is less intellectually deep than comedy, melodrama is less intellectually inclined than a drama, and more designed to stir emotion-characters have less depth, and may be broadly described as good guys and bad guys. Any story may have one or more elements of any of these.
