11/10/2023 0 Comments Dandy boy adventures oedipus![]() To conclude this analysis of the Oedipus myth, let’s return to that riddle. Perhaps the ultimate hubris is in thinking one can cheat the gods. Oedipus’ attempts to avert the prophecy by leaving home failed, because he was unwittingly fleeing to his natural parents, not from them. Laius’ attempts to do away with the child so it could never grow up to murder him failed, because Oedipus survived. However, another school of thought says that, to the ancient Greeks, fate was far too powerful to be overridden by human agency: Oedipus’ card was stamped from the start. Our actions have consequences, but that doesn’t mean that a particular action will lead to a particular consequence: it means that one action might cause something quite different to happen, which will nevertheless be linked in some way to our lives. In the tragedians’ version of the tale, it is Oedipus’ hubris, his pride, that contributes to the altercation on the road between him and Laius, the man who turns out to be his real father: if Oedipus was less stubborn, he would have played the bigger man and stepped aside to let Laius pass.Īnd thus he would (or at least could) have avoided killing his father and fulfilling the prophecy. What the moral of the Oedipus story is perhaps depends on which version we read, too. In the epic version of the Oedipus cycle, she is named Eurygania or Euryanassa, and in yet another version she is named Astymedusa. In his Odyssey, Homer calls her Epicaste. In fact, although we have followed the most famous version of the Oedipus story above, and called his mother Jocasta, she is only so named in the tragedies – that is, in the plays about Oedipus. For instance, here’s a question for you: what was the name of Oedipus’ mother? Details of the Oedipus myth vary from one telling to the next. In the epic cycle of poems about him, Oedipus remained on the throne until he died in a war against Erginus and the Minyans, presumably before they became little yellow creatures wearing blue overalls in Pixar films.Īs remarked above, there are numerous versions of the Oedipus story from classical civilisation: plays, poems, and other artistic depictions. || Public Release: DBA 0.02 (Alpha) 0.How did Oedipus die?
