Assignment/Peer Review – Is Oedipus Complex?
Overview
We can certainly believe that theatre was always a part of our human existence and a part of every culture. The mimetic response, ritual, and masks (whether physically or emotionally present) are necessary for entertainment, tradition, and, in some cases, survival.
In 5th Century B.C. in Athens Greece, Theatre was a part of the culture and many of these stories and styles have been well-preserved. Even William Shakespeare (much, much later and of a different region altogether) dramatized known stories and legends.
A great example of a playwright who was prominent among the Dionysian festivals was Sophocles. He is known for the play, Oedipus Rex (or Oedipus The King), the first part of a trilogy. This play, is one of the oldest plays that has survived from the origins of theatre and well-structured, it is worth knowing. Plays of this time (as many even now do) were performed essentially to teach a lesson. Call if a parable, or sermon of sorts, we can relate, or may even judge, Oedipus for his behavior. The Greeks often credited fate (in this case the God – Apollo) to determine the outcome of human destiny.
But, in this play, it was not without a character flaw (hamartia) in Oedipus known as hubris, or excessive pride.
You may have heard of the “Oedipus Complex” or have heard about this play though other courses. If you haven’t yet become familiar with Oedipus, you are in for a terrific story.
