The statement that best explains the role of the tragic hero archetype in literature is the second one: the tragic hero’s role is to experience a downfall due to a personal flaw.

Aristotle describes the role of the tragic hero in his<em> Poetics</em>. He states that<u> the tragic hero is the main character of a tragedy, which also experiences a change of fortune from good to bad</u>. For that reason, he is the one whom the audience ends up feeling pity for. According to Aristotle, <u>this reversal of fortune is caused by a flaw in the character of the tragic hero</u>. <em>Hamartia</em> is another term used to refer to the main character's error. Two characters that can be considered tragic heroes are Oedipus and Creon, which are part of Sophocles' plays.
