A tragic hero is a type of character in a tragedy, and is usually the protagonist.

Answer:
Correct option is (d) i.e. tragedy.
Explanation:
A tragic hero is a character in a theatrical tragedy who possesses noble and sympathetic qualities but who eventually suffers or loses. Something tragic is sadly devastating, like a loved one's unexpected death.
Since Aristotle's Poetics (335 BCE), tragedy has been used to define genres, whether at the level of play or poetry more broadly (where the tragic contrasts with epic and lyric poetry) (where tragedy is opposed to comedy). Tragic theatre has also been contrasted in the contemporary era with drama, melodrama, the tragicomic, and epic theatre.
