Prominent she-tragedies include Thomas Otway's "The Orphan" (1680), John Banks' "Virtue Betrayed, or, Anna Bullen" (1682), Thomas Southerne's "The Fatal Marriage" (1694) and Nicholas Rowe's "The Fair Penitent" (1703) and "Lady Jane Grey" (1715). Rowe was the first to use the term "she-tragedy," in 1714.
