To emphasize Oedipus' identity as the play'shero and for dramatic irony Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.) begins "Oedipus Rex" with Oedipus.
Specifically, Theban King Oedipus is the hero as the play's main character and as the doer of great deeds. One of the ways in which Oedipus' heroism and subsequent fall from grace are presented to the audience is through the literary device of dramatic irony. A dramatically ironic situation is not how it seems to the relevant character or does not lead to the expected outcome. In this case, it is dramatically ironic that Oedipus can solve Thebes' problems but not that of his own identity.
