I agree with your thoughts on “Oedipus the King.” It shows how people often act selfishly for their happiness. Oedipus, unknowingly, kills his father and marries his mother, and then he tries to escape from the truth. He tells lies and makes harsh decisions, causing problems for the city. He can’t accept what he’s done, and this leads to his downfall. The play teaches us about the dangers of pride and how our actions can have far-reaching consequences.
Jainil, these are good observations about the play, but does your post address the prompt for the week?
