Theban King Oedipus' sorrow differs from the experience of the Theban people, because his sorrow is all encompassing. He mourns for his family, his household, and his people. But Thebans mourn for the direct impact of the pestilence on each of their individual households. They understand the suffering in terms of their own personal experience. But Oedipus experiences the pestilence in terms of himself and of everyone else in the city.
Oedipus solved the Sphinx's riddle in the play Oedipus Rex ("Oedipus the King"). He alone understood that a people-killing Sphinx would pose an apparently unanswerable riddle about people.
Subservient actions and harmonizing wishes versus domination and confrontation is the way in which Creon's actions and wishes compare to those of Oedipus in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Creon acts in a subordinate capacity to his brother-in-law and to the gods. He aims to harmonize with others as part of a team and not its leader. In contrast, Theban King Oedipus aspires to dominate others and to confront and challenge whatever he dislikes.
People turn to Oedipus for help because he is the king and is believed to be wise. He has concern for the health of his people and for the well being of his kingdom.

Oedipus is the King of Thebes and the victor over the monstrous Sphinx. The people of Thebes seek Oedipus' help in preventing once again the destruction of all life in their city.

Oedipus has a very interesting character. He is going forward into his future with the knowledge about himself that he knows, which is wrong, thus affecting his future choices. You can compare and contrast the past and present Oedipus as well as talk about how he finds out more about himself through the Oracle and other tasks. I would start by just mearly comparing his life to what he knows and doesnt, then move from there. cluster diagram---- APEX
