Oedipus believed that Creon and Teiresias were trying to frame him for the purpose of taking the throne. Oedipus the King was written by Sophocles.
Recklessness is a character trait revealed by Oedipus' accusation against Creon in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, recklessness shows an unconcern or disregard for human life. The description fits Theban King Oedipus when he chooses to disregard Creon's track record. Creon does what Oedipus tells him to do and behaves as though he has no interest in grabbing all the royal powers for himself. But Oedipus claims just that when he hears upsetting, treacherous charges from Teiresias the blind prophet. He can only think that he is being framed for murder so that Teiresias and Creon, who stand to gain with Oedipus' overthrow, can take over.
They think he's a great king.
Revenge on Laius' killer, who is Oedipus, but nobody knows at the time.
It helps establish Creon as a foil for Oedipus, thus highlighting Oedipus's tendency not to think before he speaks.

That he reckless is what Oedipus' confrontations with Teiresias and Creon say about his character in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus is reckless in his overreactions to what he dislikes. He hears Teiresias accuse him of a murder that he does not remember committing. He gets back by claiming groundlessly and insultingly that he is being framed so that Teiresias and Creon can grab all the royal powers for themselves.
That what Teiresias says is treasonous and unbelievableis the reason why Oedipus becomes so angry with Teiresias in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Teiresias the blind prophet accuses Theban King Oedipus of killing King Laius. The charge carries the unenviable punishment of execution or exile. Oedipus does not remember ever meeting his royal predecessor. He is frightened at being framed and at losing the role model life of personal happiness and professional success that is his in Thebes.
I personally think that Oedipus is a better leader because he was willing to exile himself to protect Thebes from the plague. Also, in Oedipus Rex, Creon discusses with Oedipus that he does not want to be king because he didn't want that responsibility; as long as Oedipus was king, he had all the privileges of royalty without having to worry about the politics of it.
No one, he was guilty. Why do you think he was hung on the cross?
I don't understand Oedipus... Do you? No one will understand it! You are not the only one :)
