What favor does Oedipus ask of Jocasta in 'Oedipus Rex'?
That she send for the sole eyewitness to Laius' murder is the favor that Oedipus asks of Jocasta in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus can end the pestilence ravaging Thebes only by identifying and punishing the guilty in the long unsolved murder of Laius, his royal predecessor and his wife's first husband. Based on information from Queen Jocasta about the crime's location, Oedipus fears that he is Laius' killer. At the same time, based on information about the number of killers, Oedipus suspects that he may not be that killer since his long ago crime is carried out alone. He therefore asks Jocasta if the sole survivor of the attack on Laius and his five-member escort party can be brought to the palace for questioning.
Which choices does Jocasta make in 'Oedipus Rex'?
Agree to marry a man young enough to be her son, break up a fight in the royal household, help search for her first husband's killer, send for the surviving eyewitness to that killing, share the news of the Corinthian messenger, and take her life when she cannot stop Oedipus' uncomfortable questions are the choices that Jocasta makes in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Queen Jocasta marries the much younger Oedipus even though the killing of her first husband, King Laius, is left inadequately investigated and unatoned by cleansing rituals. Years later, the royal household must identify and punish the guilty in that murder if a pestilence is to be stopped before all Thebes is wiped out. Jocasta tries to smooth things over when tempers flare between her husband and Creon, her brother and the couple's royal colleague. Additionally, she tries to help Oedipus' investigations by sharing what she knows and summoning the surviving eyewitness to Laius' death. But things take an unexpected turn when a messenger tells Jocasta of the death of Corinthian King Polybus, and Oedipus learns that he is not that monarch's biological son. When Jocasta cannot stop Oedipus' questions about his true parentage, she hangs herself.
What do Oedipus' parents do to him before they send him off to die in the mountains in 'Oedipus Rex'?
Run a rod through his ankles is what Oedipus' parents do to him before they send him off to die in the mountains in the play "Oedipus Rex" by ancient Greek playwright Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, King Laius and Queen Jocasta plan to have their three-day-old infant son die by exposure in the mountains outside Thebes. Allowing a child to die was considered far less serious than killing a parent, which a prophecy says Oedipus will do if allowed to grow up. The rod through the ankles shows anyone who finds him that Oedipus is left deliberately to die.
