Overview:
As you read Oedipus Rex, you will find out that there are information in all the Scenes that
would show that his life is determined by fate or prophecies of the gods. These can be
reflected through some characters, like Tereisias, or the Priests or even on the part of the
Choragos
However, there are also choices that Oedipus himself have done in order for his fate and
prophecy not to come thru the choices he makes or evades.
