The correct answer is False

Step-by-step explanation:

The word catharsis refers to the process of purification or releasing emotions through one specific experience or activity, which leads to a strong emotional change. Additionally to this, in literature and especially in tragedy, which is a type of drama, the word "catharsis" is used to show the emotional changes some characters go through mainly as a result of the terrible events or difficult experiences that are part of the story. But the word can also refer to the emotional change a tragedy or literary piece evokes in the reader or audience. Considering this, it can be concluded it is false a catharsis is a type of comic character as a catharsis refers to the purification of emotions a character or the audience of literary works experience.
