Explanation

Tragedy is a dramatic genre characterized by serious themes, suffering, and typically unhappy endings. The direct opposite in dramatic genres is comedy, which focuses on humor and typically has happy endings. 'Humour' is related but not a genre, and 'romance' and 'calamity' are not antonyms of tragedy.
