Oracle

One of the main aspects why Oedipus leads himself towards his inevitable fate is his immoderate amount of pride. He gains this pride when he solves the riddle of the sphinx. This is when his hubris swells and leads to Oedipus believing that he is capable of solving anything. When he arrives at Thebes he is determined to find out whom the murder of Laius was committed by. He proclaims, “I curse myself as well… if by any chance he proves to be on intimate of our household.” This shows how Oedipus’…

corrupted by the slave trade and those who profited from it. The oracle of Arochukwu became connected with the slave traders, in exchange for a portion of the wealth resulting from the sales the traders made. If a person was accused of witchcraft and the oracle was passing judgment, it was likely that that person would be sold into slavery, as a mode of execution. This accusation started to occur much more frequently at the oracle, most likely because of pressure for more slave labor. The…

Antigone and St. Anne’s Basilica all through out history civilizations have based their communities, their traditions, and their lives on the ideas and beliefs of the religions they hold to be truth.

However, Greek Mythology and Catholicism are vastly different religions and the differences…

Fate vs. Free Will Many believe that fate is what will control a person’s destiny and once it is set up for them, there’s no changing it, but others believe that free will has also a big part to rewrite a person's destiny. Oedipus was born with a terrible fate that wasn’t his fault or his choosing. All he could do was try to change his destiny or help it come true. Oedipus had no idea what actions he took would be the right one. The only thing he could do was try and choose a path that may or…

In my opinion, I find Oedipus extremely arrogant. Oedipus called Teiresias a liar and even accused him of working with someone who sought Oedipus to become an exile. Oedipus says “for I did not seek it out, Creon, my old trusted family friend, has secretly conspired to overthrow me and paid off a double-dealing quack like this…”. Though he has known Creon as an honest man and perhaps a friend-like figure he accuses him of betraying him. He does so publicly. He disregards Teiresias' special…

Oedipus’ fate, philosophers such as Aristotle would argue that Oedipus and Jokaska were still somewhat responsible for what happened to them because of free will. At one point in the play Jokaska recalls a prophesy her and King Laios received form an oracle before Oedipus was born, “It said that Laios was destined to die at the hands of a son born to him and me.” (Oedipus the King, 52). At this point they both had the choice to not have any children at all, though it would have been hard it…
