Oedipus is a tragic hero.
It is his pride.
Yes, Oedipus is a tragic character in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, a tragic character experiences an unfortunate end, or meets with a misfortunate turn of events, in life.

That she is a child who suffers but who is not known to do great things is the reason why Antigone is not the tragic hero of the play "Oedipus Rex."Specifically, a person who is tragic meets with a bad end. A person who is heroic is capable of doing great deeds. The job description matches Antigone's father, Theban King Oedipus, in the play "Oedipus Rex" and herself in the play "Antigone".
BYE
Oedipus basically had what in the greek language was called hubris...its the tragic flaw of arrogance...throughout the play, it is evident that Oedipus thinks highly of himself (and this is brought up many times in conversation with Tiresias.) Another flaw Oedipus had was being overly determined to find out this truth of his identity, this inevitably causes his downfall
Oedipus and Roland are both tragic heroes because they experience a downfall due to a fatal flaw in their character. Oedipus's tragic flaw is his pride and impulsiveness, while Roland's is his sense of duty and loyalty. Despite their noble qualities, both characters meet a tragic fate that brings about their downfall.
