Oedipus is more good than bad in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Oedipus expresses his goodness in defeating the Sphinx, gaining the respect of his people and serving superficially as a personal and professional model of happiness and success. He manifests his badness in his quick temper and rash decision making. But his badness reflects more a mistaken self-image than an evil character.
"Rex" is Latin for "King". Oedipus Rex means "Oedipus the King".
Thebes is the setting of Oedipus Rex because it is the place where the story begins.
'King' is an English equivalent of 'Rex' in the play 'Oedipus Rex'.
That he is results oriented but rash are ways in which Oedipus is good and a bad leader in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus keeps track of what goes on in his city. He leaves no stone unturned in anticipating his people's needs and solving problems, from the Sphinx's riddle to King Laius' murder. But his city matters so much that he gets carried away with his negative and positive emotions and makes reckless promises that come back to haunt him.
The shepherd in Oedipus Rex is the person who rescues Oedipus Rex as a child. The shepherd also confirms the main character's fate.
