A Tragic Showdown Macbeth vs Oedipus?

The dignity of Edips is in the discovery and punishment of the murderer of Reus. Oedipus fulfilled his promise and punished himself, while acquiring personal dignity. That Macbeth. At first he did not believe that his three sister's prophecies became Cawdor's Thane and king. But when King Duncan used him as Cawdor's Tarn Knight, we saw his new change. The sister's words were told to Macbeth. When Duncan took his son to Macbeth 's castle and ate it, Macbeth did something unthinkable.

But these same exquisite qualities also lead to his inevitable tragic downfall. His wisdom became self-righteous and he refused to see him marry his mother. Macbeth with a unique character with Oedipus has pure wisdom of Mrs Macbeth. He loved his reputation with his friends because they were a bit degenerate. Like Edips, his personality brought about his inevitable tragic downfall. One of the characteristics that Edpsus did not change during the drama was his strength and courage when facing a disaster.

The purpose of this article is to compare the tragedy "Macbeth" of Shakespeare with the tragedy of Greece "Edpsus Rex". Although there are similarities in drama, you can see that the collapse of Macbeth is very different from the collapse of Edepus. The downfall of Macbeth was due to his own personal decision, the fall of Edps was due to fate and God's will. The tragic plot of Greece always emphasizes personality; everyone is wearing a mask. These masks seem to obscure the role of people. This will make the character more universal. The hero wearing a mask lacks personality and individuality. As the hero is more individual than the individual, this makes Catalsis more relevant.

The most proud of the two choices of pride and anger is the tragic defect that is closest to identifying this character. In addition, Oedipus says that he can handle all the facts, no matter how much damage it is asking for information. This also implied his vanity and pride, which eventually led to his tragedy. His wife and others tried to persuade him to stop the investigation, but Edips continued and was destroyed by his discovery.

The prophet told Oedipus that he would marry his mother someday killing his father. Fearing this, Edips decided to leave Cornice. In doing so he opposed the gods, he said that he would not let this happen to him, he dominates his own destiny
