HI everybody!!:smash:
I have a to do a paper for a world lit class and I am confuses about the topic she assigned. It says:
. What are men’s relationships to their gods in the Iliad/Odyssey or Oidipos/Antigone; for instance, Odysseos is cursed to wander by a god but also sometimes assisted and saved by another. Oidipos’ entire life is oppressed by an oracle. Antigone feels her conscience, what she calls the laws of the gods, is a higher authority than Kreon, the king.
Believe it or not she is an accredited Literature teacher. I know there are a lot of smart people on this forum that could really shed some light on the subject.
Thanks in advance,
Mark
