Sophocles Oedipus pride The tragedy of the Greek king is characterized by emotional catharsis brought about by the hero's bad suffering. In Sophie's "Oedipus the King", the painful influence of the hero is caused by his tragic embarrassment. Sophocles often uses character error to change the ending and future of the protagonist and to influence it. The arrogance of Edips invoked him to complete God and exacerbated his punishment. The pride of Edips is an inherent characteristic.

Oedipus - The hero of King Oedipus and Oedipus of Cologne. Before the action of King Edpses began, Edips was king of Thebes. He is known for his ability to solve wisdom and mystery - he rescued the town of Tabe and became king by solving the mystery of Sphinx. However, Edips had stubbornly turned his attention to his truth. The literal meaning of his name ("swollen foot") is a clue to his identity - he was taken away from the house of Lyus as a baby, and his feet were on the hill. On his way to Thebes, he killed his biological father, he did not know who he was, and began marrying his biological mother Jocasta.

Tiresias - Thebes' blind fortune teller Tiresias has appeared in Oedipus and Antigone. In the King of Oedipus, Tiresias told Oedipus that he was a murderer of hunting, Oedipus did not believe him. In Antigone, Tiresias told Creon that Creon himself was bringing disasters to Thebes, and Creon did not believe him. However, both Oedipus and Kryon claim to be convinced of Tiresia. The literal expression of the prophet refers to the figurative blindness of those who refuse to believe the truth when spoken.
