But usually it also is intended to inspire admiration for the central character, and by analogy for all mankind. In the century after Sophocles, the philosopher Aristotle analyzed tragedy.

Rebecca's in the jail…They've surely gone wild now, Mr. Hale…My wife is the very brick and mortar of the church, Mr. Hale-and Martha Corey, th ...

... is that many manufacturers actually cooperate and by contracts copy each others models. The Mitsubishi 3000 GT for example is practically the same car as the Dodge Stealth, only the Mitsubishi is made in Japan at the original factory and the Stealth is made in the US at the Dodge factory.
