week 8

i would rate my ability to read and understand Oedipus the King would be subjective. the parts i did understand were the dramatic irony of the play. i also the tragic events and the exploration of freedom versus fate. these elements resonate with me due to the timeless importance and psychological depth.  the elements that were challenging to me were the difficult language they used in the play, also the cultural context of Greek society required  a lot of effort to fully understand . adding on to that trying to figure out their moral dilemmas  and the psychological turmoil of the characters, especially Oedipus.  even withe challenges i think reading the play was an interesting experience . the character i would like to portray if i had to would be Oedipus himself. one reason is why is because he is the lead of  the play.  then playing the character  would be an acting challenge try io reenact his emotional journey
