That Oedipus does everything he can to find the murderer of King Laius,
while the audience knows from the beginning that the murderer is himself.
Oedipus is Laius's murderer.
Suicide is what happens to Oedipus' queen in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Jocasta is Theban King Oedipus' queen. In the last part of the play, she correctly deduces that Oedipus is her son, the killer of her first husband, King Laius, and the half-brother of his children with her. The knowledge causes her to hang herself with the threads from her own robes.
By trying to evade the prophecy, Oedipus, unwittingly causes it to occur.
Disconnection from the reality of a situation is what is dramatic irony in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, dramatic irony refers to the misunderstanding of characters to the real meaning of their situations or words. For example, Theban King Oedipus says that he will identify and punish the guilty and any accessories even if they are members of his own household. He turns out to be the killer that all Thebes seeks, and his words remove all hope of pardon.
Ending the pestilence is the priest's request of Oedipus in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, a pestilence afflicts Thebes. It causes children to die, crops to fail and livestock to ail. It has a chance of being solved if Theban King Oedipus gets involved.
A messenger from Corinth arrives and announces that Polybus is dead of natural causes; Oedipus and Jocasta gleefully accept this as evidence that the oracle which said Oedipus would kill his father was false

That Jocasta hangs herself and that Oedipus blinds himself, loses his job and is placed under house arrest are what happens to Jocasta and Oedipus in the last part of "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban monarchs Oedipus and Jocasta realize that much more than husband and wife they are son and mother. They also realize that Jocasta's first husband is killed albeit unknowingly by Jocasta's second husband, Oedipus. That knowledge causes Jocasta to hang herself and Oedipus to blind himself, lose his royal powers and residence, and suffer house arrest until divine will indicates whether he is to be executed or exiled for his criminal act and immoral behavior.

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
It is to Delphi that Oedipus sends Creon in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus does not know what causes a pestilence in Thebes. He therefore has Creon, his brother-in-law and royal colleague, take a trip to Delphi. Delphi is the location of the Delphic oracle whose insights are respected throughout all ancient Greece.
That he will find Laius' killer is what Oedipus promises to do at the end of the prologue in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, a pestilence causes children to be stillborn, crops to fail and livestock to ail in Thebes. It can be ended with the identification and execution or exile of the guilty in the murder of Theban King Laius, King Oedipus' royal predecessor. Oedipus announces that he will apprehend the guilty or he and all Thebes will die from the pestilence in the process.
it had a dramatic crash and 2 causes were unemployment and trade deflict
Yes, there is a pestilence in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the play begins with Theban King Oedipus and all Thebes trying to figure out what causes and what ends the pestilence. Oedipus gets the news from the Delphic oracle on how to end the pestilence. By the end of the play, Oedipus knows that the pestilence will end even though he loses his friends, his home, his job and his sight in the process.
