Why does Jocasta suddenly beg Oedipus to forget everything and stop asking questions in 'Oedipus Rex'?
That she realizes that he is her husband's killer and her son is the reason why Jocasta suddenly begs Oedipus to forget everything and to stop asking questions in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban Queen Jocasta listens to the conversation between the Corinthian messenger and her husband, King Oedipus.
