Blindness and Sight - Lack of Vision in Oedipus The King

What is Edips' blind king (Rex) vision? It can identify the surrounding environment or more. Is it knowledge? Do you understand? Can the blind see it? In addition, whether the blind person is blind or not, if the truth is too bad, choose not to see. The phrase "looking too much" has many meanings.

In these two pieces of work, blindness is used to express spiritual defects of some characters. Sight is not completely from physical vision. In King Lear, Gloucester and Lear are two main examples of Shakespeare 's integration into this theme, and Oedipus is among the kings of Oedipus.
