What are the each hero's weaknesses of the characteristics of the greatest tragedies written by William Shakespeare?
Each hero has his weaknesses of nature:
Hamlet, the melancholic scholar-prince, faces the dilemma between action and mind:
Othello's inner weakness is made use of by the outside evil.
The old king Lear who is unwilling to totally give up his power makes himself suffer from treachery and infidelity; and Macbeth's lust for power stirs up his ambition and leads him to incessant crimes.
