This anthology is an attempt to explore the various facets, ambiguities and issues related to the comprehensive dimension of the play, 'Oedipus Rex' written by Sophocles. The play exemplifies every element that Aristotle had spoken about in the poetic, and conjures up a blend of human capability and foibles which vivify the quintessence of Greek Tragedy. This book contains multiple articles discussing the various aspects of the play, like the Athenian background, the plot, the quest motif, the problem of Amor fati, the tragic irony in the play, the structural pattern, the tragedy of Fate, the role of the chorus, and the Freudian interpretation of the Oedipus Complex.
