1.
The Western tragic heroes, who are often destinguished persons with definite will to challenge, can actively take action, dominate the situation, bring fatal destruction to the enemy at the cost of great pains for themselves; the disasterous end, which is out of their own choice, is the fulfillment of their own will without much regret, therefore poetic justice is not needed.
西方悲剧人物往往是出众的英雄,有着明确的具有挑战性的意志,能够积极地行动,主动地控制局面,有力地将冲突推向高潮,并在自己蒙受痛苦的同时,给对手以致命的打击;其灾难性结局是人物自愿选择的,是自觉的意志的实现,没有多少遗憾,无需善恶报应的介入。
