The Duchess of Malfi is specifically a revenge tragedy. The story is from the Jacobean era (early 1600's).The revenge comes through the elements of tragedy. The Duchess chooses love over wealth and in the end, she is unrewarded, "her noble death is not even the play's culmination. That is left to her murderer-turned-avenger, Bosola, the middle man whose attempts to make way in the cruel world of the play end in disaster, and whose reformation ends only in disaster for those he tries to help."
