Oedipus & Antigone on Power
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that argues that in his plays Oedipus the King and Antigone, the ancient Greek playwright Sophocles meant to edify his audience as well as entertain them concerning issues of power. In regards to Sophocles' concept of power and the right to rule, Oedipus portrays the king as embodying the state. Because the king has sinned, the body politic itself is seen as sinful and is, therefore, punished by the gods. Antigone, on the other hand, concerns whether or not the state ever has the right to overrule religious principles. An examination of these two plays shows that in relating both plays to modern society, the lessons of Antigone retain the most relevance, but the lessons of Oedipus are also applicable to a certain extent. No additional sources cited.
