The Cause of Oedipus' Tragedy: A defect of humanity Perspective |
| |
| Abstract: | Oedipus the King tells the story of Oedipus, a man who becomes the king of Thebes, whilst in the process unwittingly fulfilling a prophecy that he would kill his father Laius and marry his mother Jocasta. The more he struggles against fate, the closer he walks to the trap of fate. Finally, he is forced to strike the pupils of his eyes and abandon himself. The cause of this tragedy is worth studying. This thesis will analyze the cause from a defect of humanity perspective. Oedipus' tragedy mainly leads by lust for power and advocating rationality excessively. |
