Shakespearean comedy and tragedy

A Shakespeare comedy usually ended happily. Mostly a wedding. Love and love problems are an important part in many of his comedies and there's always a misunderstanding or pesky family or friends that complicate things.

The element of a tragedy were...
- witches,ghosts etc.
-tragic hero
-conflict
-revenge
-sad ending
-humorous scene
-isolation of main character

Most of Shakespeare's tragedies are focused around a moral.
