Major Literary Movements

Robin Ghosh


Abstract: The major literary movements began with the Greek tragedy. The word tragedy has been derived from the Greek word "Tragoidia". Its literal meaning was "goat He song" because in Greek the word "tragos" means 'he goat', and "Oide" means song. Tragedy means literary composition of serious or sorrowful character with a fatal or disastrous conclusion. The dictionary meaning says "Tragedy" refers to the species of drama in which the action and language are elevated, and the ending usually sad, especially involving the fall of a great man!


Keywords: Greek tragedy, Athena, Phidias, Romantic Setting, The sentimental and the Anti Sentimental comedy
