Pride and Prejudice
In Sophocles’ Oedipus Tyrannous, the proganist is portrayed as a character that abuses his power because of his pride. Consequently, he becomes prejudiced towards others’ suggesting that ‘he’ is the seeked murderer. He is also narcissistic, and self-absorbed, thinking he can settle the “pollution” that is “festering in [his] land” (pg.4). Furthermore, he has an enthusiasm to discover the truth of who his real parents are, and becomes much tempered when an unexpected event arises.

He was the man who was able
To answer the riddle proposed by the Sphinx
Mighty Oedipus__
He was an object of envy
To all for his fortune and fame.
There goes Oedipus__
Now he is drowning in waves of dread and despair (pg.33).
