The Three Theban Plays: Antigone; Oedipus the King; Oedipus at Colonus
Sophocles’ Theban plays—Oedipus the King, Oedipus at Colonus, and Antigone—stand as the cornerstone of Western drama. Spanning the lifespan of a single ill-fated family, these masterpieces explore the chilling intersection of human will and divine destiny.
From the gripping detective story of Oedipus the King, where a leader’s search for truth leads to his own ruin, to the moving redemption of an exile in Oedipus at Colonus, and finally to the fierce moral courage of Antigone as she defies a tyrant to honor her family, Sophocles captures the full range of human emotion.
This collection remains a timeless meditation on power, justice, and the tragic beauty of the human spirit in the face of insurmountable odds.
