Oedipus Rex Sophocles
Sophocles Background • Born in 495 B.C. about a mile northwest of Athens, Sophocles was to become one of the great playwrights of the golden age. The son of a wealthy merchant, he would enjoy all the comforts of a thriving Greek empire. He studied all of the arts. By the age of sixteen, he was already known for his beauty and grace and was chosen to lead a choir of boys at a celebration of the victory of Salamis. Twelve years later, his studies complete, he was ready to compete in the City Dionysia--a festival held every year at the Theatre of Dionysus (Dion-ah-sus) in which new plays were presented. • In his first competition, Sophocles took first prize--defeating none other than Aeschylus (Esk-e-lus) himself. More than 120 plays were to follow. He would go on to win eighteen first prizes, and he would never fail to take at least second.
An accomplished actor, Sophocles performed in many of his own plays. However, the young athenian's voice was comparatively weak, and eventually he would give up his acting career to pursue other ventures. In addition to his theatrical duties, Sophocles served for many years as an ordained priest. He also served on th

Literature created in the ancient period (800 BC–500 AD) was mostly influenced by Greco-Roman culture, which became the basis for the Western literature that we know today. The intellectual and philosophical studies made by the Greeks and the Romans are the foundation of European literature. The Greeks introduced all major kinds of literature: tragedy, comedy, epic, history, biography, prose narrative, lyric, and satire. The earliest forms of these literature were oral in nature. The Romans also adapted the literary forms the Greeks produced.
- 3. Oral epics became material for Homer’s The Iliad and The Odyssey, which expressed the values and imagination of Western humanity and were also used by the Greeks as models for conduct. The Iliad narrates the Trojan War and the siege of Troy. The Odyssey, which is a sequel to The Iliad, recounts the journey of Odysseus at the end of the war. A common theme in Homer’s two epics is the quest for glory that is earned through a heroic battle. The Greeks called this kleos, which means “renown” or “glory.” Aside from Homer, major Greek writers during this period were Aesop, Plato, Socrates, Aristotle, and Sophocles. Some of the major Roman writers of this period were Horace, Virgil, and Ovid.
