  • The Oedipus Myth
  • By: Katie Alcorn
  • In the Oedipus Myth, the author explains the prophesy of Oedipus and how it is completed. The Prophesy states that Oedipus will kill his father and marry his mother.
  • King Laios and Queen Jocasta, the parents of Oedipus, hear of the prophesy by an oracle, and abandon their son; therefore they are sentencing him to death. The shepherd charged with killing him instead decides to rescue him.
  • You shall live, child.
  • He is adopted by the King and Queen of Corinth, who raise him as their own, neglecting to mention his adoption to him. When he learns of the prophesy, he runs away from home to prevent it. During his journey, he runs into s msn that tries to run him off the road. They fight and he kills the man.
  • Bye. Stay safe without me!
  • At Thebes, he is asked to take over rule, because their king had just been killed. When he accepts, he marries the queen, and they rule happily until a plague hits them. Oedipus sends Creon to consult the oracle.
  • Umm... Okay, sure.
  • SAVE US!!
  • The oracle says that the plague exists to punish the murderer of King Leios. With investigation, he learns that the man he killed was his father and that the Queen is his mother. Distraught at this news, the Queen commits suicide, and Oedipus gouges out his eyes.
  • Yikes
  • Creon takes over rule, and banishes Oedipus, making him wander in the outlands with his daughter Antigone until he dies. After that, she returns to find her brothers alternating rule. However, they can't agree and they kill each other in a civil war, leading to Creon and Antigone's disagreement of how they should be buried.
