What is the significance of Oedipus as plowman in 'Oedipus Rex'?
That he has children by the same woman, or figuratively plows the same furrows, as his father Laius is the significance of Oedipus as plowman in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. -- 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus marries Queen Jocasta, his wife and his father's widow. The relationship proves to be even more fertile than that in Jocasta's first marriage. The royal couple's intimate relations are likened to plowing a field, sowing seed and producing food. It serves as a somewhat subtly comic and ribald note in an otherwise heavily tragic play.
