Oedipus Tyrannus, Electra, and Antigone of Sophocles (1897) is a collection of three ancient Greek plays written by the renowned playwright Sophocles. The first play, Oedipus Tyrannus, tells the story of Oedipus, a king who unknowingly fulfills a prophecy that he will kill his father and marry his mother. The second play, Electra, follows the titular character as she seeks revenge for her father's murder. The final play, Antigone, is a tragedy about a young woman who defies the law to bury her brother and faces the consequences of her actions. These plays are considered some of the greatest works of ancient Greek literature and explore themes of fate, justice, and morality. Sophocles' masterful use of language and dramatic techniques continue to captivate readers and audiences alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
