High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Oedipus rex is an Operaoratorio after Sophocles by Igor Stravinsky, scored for orchestra, speaker, soloists, and male chorus. The libretto, based on Sophocless tragedy, was written by Jean Cocteau in French and then translated by Abbe Jean Danielou into Latin (the narration, however, is performed in the language of the audience).

Sophocles's Oedipus Rex is probably the most famous tragedy ever written. It is known by a variety of title (the most common being Oedipus Rex), including Oedipus the King and Oedipus Tyrannus. Sophocles, first produced the play in Athens around 430 B.C. at the Great Dionysia, a religious and cultural festival held in honor of the god Dionysus, where it won second prize. In the play Oedipus, King of Thebes, upon hearing that his city is being ravaged by fire and plague, sends his brother-in-law Creon to find a remedy from the Oracle of Apollo at Delphi. When Creon returns Oedipus begins investigating the death of his predecessor, Laius, and discovers through various means that he himself was the one who had unknowingly killed Laius and then married his own mother, Jocasta. Jocasta commits suicide, Oedipus blinds himself, takes leave of his children, and is led away. Aristotle praises the play in his Poetics for having an exemplary, well-constructed plot, one which is capable of inspiring fear and pity not only in its audience but especially in those who have merely heard of the story. Following Aristotle's appraisal, many prominent authors including Voltaire, Frederich Nietzsche, and Sidmund Freud reacted at length to the play's themes of incest and patricide. In the twentieth century, the most influential of these thinkers, Freud, showed that Oedipus's fate is that of every man; the "Oedipus Complex" is the definitive parent-child relationship.

Where can I read Oedipus Rex online (Reputable translator!)?

I'm going to a new school this year, so I've only just found out about my summer homework. I ordered the book from Amazon UK, but I live in Greece, and so the book will not be here on time.
Meanwhile, I've read the play online, but now I have to annotate a passage, and the translation isn't great.
Does anyone know where I can find an online version of the play from a reputable translator? My school recommends penguin classics, so if that is available, it would be fantastic. They say a translator definitely has to be specified, which it wasn't on the one I read.
Thanks for any answers!
