Please pick one of the following characters: Oedipus, Jocasta, or Creon. After reading Part III (page 60):
1. Analyze the character you chose, determining his or her point of view on the problems facing Thebes at
the end of Part III (page 60) and the tone each character would use in responding to each of the others.
2. Then, determine what your character takes and believes to be the truth" at this point in the play.
3. In the character of the role you have chosen, write a letter to another character in the play that you
didn't choose.
4. Your letter should express your character's perspective on the truth" of the play at the end of Part III
(page 60). Write the letter in first person, following standard personal-letter format. Your letter should
be approximately one page.
5. After you have edited your letter for spelling, grammar, and coherence, submit your letter in canvas.
So, to recap:
You are writing a letter from one character to another, but you are writing it from the information we have
after part III (page 60). You are explaining in your letter what you (your character) believes to be true at this
point in the play. Basically, explain your character's point of view to another character.
Write in first person as if you were the character.
