Summary on USMARC: "This Norton Critical Edition features a newly translated and annotated text of Sophocles's Greek tragedy, Oedipus Tyrannos. The play begins late in the mythic story, when Oedipus, the confident, assertive immigrant who serves as ruler of Thebes, is called upon to investigate a plague devastating the city. Tracing the cause of this sickness leads Oedipus gradually to discover terrible truths about his own family that have been buried for a generation, hinted at only by a confusing array of mysterious prophecies. "Sources" provides other ancient interpretations of the Oedipus myth, as well as part of Thucydides' account of the plague at Athens, and discussions of the play's structure and of free will from Aristotle; all ancient texts are newly translated for this Critical Edition. "Criticism" offers contemporary analyses and provide context for some of the key themes found in the play. A chronology is also included"--Provided by publisher
