QR code
"Oedipus király" by Sophocles is an Athenian tragedy possibly first performed around 429 BC. When a deadly plague ravages Thebes, King Oedipus vows to find and punish the murderer of the former king, Laius. As he pursues the truth with determination, consulting prophets and witnesses, Oedipus unknowingly draws closer to a horrifying revelation about his own past. This masterwork of Greek drama explores fate, truth, and the devastating consequences of self-discovery in
one of literature's most powerful tragic narratives. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
