What does Creon say that Oedipus needs to do to get proof of Creon's innocence in 'Oedipus Rex'?
Consult with the Delphic oracle is what Creon says that Oedipus needs to do to get proof of Creon's innocence in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus groundlessly charges Creon, his brother-in-law and royal colleague, with attempting to usurp all royal powers. Creon defends himself. He says that Oedipus need only check with the Delphic oracle. The oracle will confirm that the pestilence can be ended only with the identification and punishment of the guilty in King Laius' murder.

How does Creon react to the charges that Oedipus makes against him in 'Oedipus Rex'?
It is with a spirited but logical and reasonedself-defense that Creon reacts to the charges that Oedipus makes against him in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus accuses Creon, his brother-in-law and royal colleague, of treasonously conspiring with Teiresias the blind prophet to grab all royal powers for themselves. Creon never drops the deference that he consistently shows to Oedipus. He presents his defense and swears an oath as to the truthfulness of his testimony. But it serves for nothing with the hot-headed Oedipus who thinks that he knows everybody better than they know themselves.
What is Creon's principal argument with Oedipus in 'Oedipus Rex'?
It is over groundless charges of treasonous conspiracythat Creon has his principal argument with Oedipus in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus groundlessly charges his brother-in-law and royal colleague, Creon, with conspiring to grab royal powers for himself and Thebes' royal advisor, Teiresias the blind prophet. Creon defends himself in a spirited but reasoned and respectful fashion. He insists that he prefers not to be supreme ruler of Thebes and that what he says and does is above board and can be verified.
How does Creon treat Oedipus during the final scene of Oedipus Rex?
Creon exerts authority over Oedipus.
Why does Oedipus refuse to change his mind about Creon in 'Oedipus Rex'?
Because Oedipus does not see how he can be Laius' killer, because Teiresias' charges to that effect will lead to Oedipus' overthrow or death, and because Creon stands the most to gain, Oedipus refuses to change his mind about Creon in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Teiresias the blind prophet says that Oedipus is the mystery killer of previous Theban King Laius. Oedipus, his wife Jocasta and his brother-in-law Creon are joint rulers of Thebes. The charge against Oedipus is punishable by exile or death. Either way, Oedipus loses his job, and Creon therefore adds more responsibilities and power to his. Oedipus therefore assumes that Teiresias is making the charge up so that Creon can have all the royal power and glory for himself.
Which of the following is true Creon is Oedipus's stepfather Creon is Jocasta's brother Jocasta is Creon's aunt Laius was Oedipus's rival?
