Summary | "Edipo Rey; Edipo en Colona; Antígona" by Sophocles is a collection of Greek tragedies written in ancient times. These plays explore complex themes of fate, identity, guilt, and the human condition, centering around the character of Edipo, a tragic hero cursed by prophecy. The series scrutinizes the dire consequences of one's actions, particularly through Edipo’s relentless search for the truth about his identity and his tragic downfall that unfolds throughout the narratives. At the start of "Edipo Rey," the citizens of Thebes approach King Edipo, pleading for his help as their city suffers from a devastating plague. Edipo expresses deep concern for his people's suffering and announces that he has sent Creón to consult the oracle of Apollo for guidance. Creón returns with news that the plague stems from the unresolved murder of the former king, Layo, and declares that the murder must be avenged to save Thebes. Edipo vows to find the murderer, only to discover that the investigation will lead to a tragic unraveling of his own identity, foreshadowing the personal calamity that will arise as he confronts the dark truth of his own past.
