 A Comparison between Laughing and Sentimental Comedy
Comedy is defined by Aristotle to be a picture of the frailties of the lower part of mankind, to distinguish it from tragedy, which is an exhibition of the misfortunes of the great.
When tragedy exhibits to us some great man fallen from his height, and struggling with want and adversity, we feel his situation in the same manner as we suppose he himself must feel, and our pity is increased in proportion to the height from whence he fell.
Distress, therefore, is the proper object of tragedy, since the great excite our pity by their all; but not equally so of comedy, since the actors employed in it are originally so mean that they sink but little by their fall.

 Of tragedy by David Hume
It is thus the fiction of tragedy softens the passion by an infusion of a new feeling, not merely by weakening or diminishing the sorrow.
He himself, as well as the reader of that age, were too deeply concerned in the events, and felt a pain from subjects which an historian and a reader of another age would regard as the most pathetic and interesting, and, by consequence, the most agreeable.

The times of grieving clumsiness, calculatable alternating growling-vocals and angelic-voices and static roaring gothic-metal sounds, which has found uncountable imitators in the second half of the 90s and was ruminanted with a penetrance, which lets someone loose even the interest in the original, Theatre Of Tragedy themselves, are over.
