What theory does Oedipus develop about laius death?
That they are bandits in the pay of anti-royalists in Thebes is a theory that Oedipus develops about Laius' death in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus learns that his royal predecessor, Laius, appears to be the murder victim of a band of robbers. That Laius is no ordinary personage and that he travels simply but as part of an escort party makes the event all the more daring and unbelievable to Oedipus. Oedipus therefore assumes that money from Thebans who oppose their king must be behind such an audacious, desperate, disrespectful measure.

What events cause Oedipus to change and develop in 'Oedipus Rex'?
One event that causes Theban King Oedipus to change and develop is the news that his royal predecessor's killers remain unpunished and must be found and punished with death or exile. This is a positive development that results in positive, proactive change on Oedipus' part. Previously, he takes no interest in the disappearance of Theban King Laius, who was the first husband of Oedipus' wife, Theban Queen Jocasta. The entire city of Thebes knows that Laius left to consult the Delphic Oracle and never returned. But Oedipus previously is content just to take over the vacant throne and the grieving widow that Laius leaves behind. In essence, Oedipus previously leaves it to the dead to bury the dead.Another event is the news that Teiresias the blind prophet reluctantly shares as to the identity of Laius' murderers. At first, Teiresias doesn't want to share his insider information. But Oedipus becomes insulting and threatening. So Teiresias reveals that Oedipus is Laius' killer. Oedipus' response is even more anger, bullying, and threats. So this event is a negative development that results in backsliding into negativity on Oedipus' part.Still another event is the interaction between Oedipus and his brother-in-law and uncle, Theban King Creon. Creon's remarks of the first event above and Teiresias' remarks of the second are combined in Oedipus' mind in a most negative way. Oedipus decides that his co-ruler and his seer are in cahoots to overthrow him. So Oedipus expresses a death wish for Creon. Once again, this is a negative development whose consequence is further backsliding into negativity by Oedipus.Yet another event is the news of Jocasta's suicide. Oedipus realizes that his wife prefers to face death than execution or exile as punishment for her now revealed incestuous marriage with her own son. That realization and the knowledge that he has been blind to the true nature of his life drive Oedipus to blind himself. This is the ultimate, negative development whose consequence is the point of no return for Oedipus.Through his reactions to the previous events, and with his own self wounding, Oedipus brings himself to his predicted fate as a blind beggar. How else can he lead his life? His emotional reactions end all semblance of respect for him by his people. His physical action make him incapable of anything other than begging during the times in which he lives.
