Several songs relate to the themes and motifs of Oedipus, particularly those dealing with fate, tragedy, and familial conflict. "The Kill" by Thirty Seconds to Mars explores themes of identity and self-discovery, echoing Oedipus’s journey of uncovering painful truths. Similarly, "Oedipus" by the band The Weakerthans directly references the myth and its tragic elements, while "Family Affair" by Mary J. Blige touches on complicated family dynamics reminiscent of Oedipus's own struggles. These songs reflect the deeper emotional and psychological aspects of the Oedipus story.

What does Oedipus relate about his past to explain his fear in 'Oedipus Rex'?

It is his murder of five people that Oedipus relates about his past to explain his fear in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus becomes fearful when he hears of King Laius' death place as the Delphi-Daulia intersection in the land of Phocis. He explains that he indeed is a secret murderer. Just before settling down in Thebes, he kills five people at the very same intersection at about the same time as Laius' death.

What is the relationship between Oedipus' 'hamartia' and Creon's description of him as not known for idle words in 'Oedipus Rex'?

Examples of foreshadowing and of irony relate Oedipus' "hamartia" and Creon's description of him as not known for idle words in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, "hamartia" may refer to an error in judgment. Theban King Oedipus says that he will make sure that execution or exile is the fate of Laius' killer even if the guilty person is found to be a member of the royal household. Creon knows that Oedipus, his brother-in-law and royal colleague, says what he means and means what he says. Ironically, the killer is found to be a royal, and the punishment will be carried out, but in an unexpected quarter.
