How does Oedipus’ tragic flaw (hubris) show that he does not know himself? Hello! So, I need help creating a strong thesis statement for my ACES paragraph. The question above is my prompt.
I was wondering how Oedipus' tragic flaw, which is his hubris (excessive pride), contributes to his loss of identity (self knowledge)?
Side question - Are there any good examples of this in the play: Oedipus Rex?
Thanks!
