This Work Has Been Intended To Study The Dramatic Significance Of The Tragic Hero In Shakespeare S Major Tragedies. Hamlet, Macbeth, Othello And King Lear Have Been Chosen For Detailed Study, Because The Hero In Each Of These Is A Person Who Is Supreme, And Deeply Involved In Social And Personal Relationships. Shakespeare Shows The Tragedy Arising Out Of A Situation In Which The Hero Is Compelled To Involve And Waging A Ferocious Fighting Against Injustice And Vice Of The Society Of Which He Would Normally Be The Cynosure. Here The Hero Is Supreme And Unique. The Heroic Deed Of The Heroes Of Shakespeare Know No Measure Of Their Spiritual Growth.
Despite their diversity in tone and subject matter, Shakespeare's four mature tragedies--Hamlet, Othello, King Lear, and Macbeth--all have an essential experience in common. Bernard McElroy defines this experience as the collapse of the subjective world of the tragic hero. Originally published in 1973.

First published in 2002. This is the Volume III of the five G. Wilson Knight collected works series and focuses on Shakespeare’s tragic heroes for his early to later tragedies or Timon of Athens, Anthony and Cleopatra and Coriolanus. This book has grown from Knight’s dramatic recital 'Shakespeare's Dramatic Challenge', and therefore includes a prefatory note on his stage experience. The complete record, with illustrations, has already been documented in Shakespearian Production (enlarged 1964), but a rather more personal account is offered here.
The Tragic Hero through Ages is an illuminating work on the greatest Greek and English tragedies and their heroes. The first chapter deals with the Greek tragedies and their heroes. The next three chapters study the outstanding pre-Shakespearean, Shakespearean and post-Shakespearean tragedies and their heroes. The Miltonic and the Byronic heroes have been studied in fifth and sixth chapters, respectively. The closing chapter summarizes the whole work and many undiscovered facts have been brought to light. It is genuine contribution to the whole theory of Greek and English tragic drama. It embodies the most famous speeches and best scenes from the greatest Greek and English Tragedies: their short summaries and the lifelike portraits of their heroes. It is a running commentary on the Greek and English tragic drama, spreading over a span of 2500 years with all its charm and grandeur. It is a colossal work with the finish of an exquisite piece of jewellery.
