From this roles, we can get many useful informations. Some stories are true, so we can not ignore this aspect. Then in this way, we can find a good method to know the west culture and person.My Favorite Hero in Ancient GreeceBefore I entering university , I did not know whats Greece myth. Or why the Greece is so famous. And when I was a fresh man in college, I still dont like read the Greece myth. Until this year , I have this course of the culture of west, I start touch the knowledge of the Greece myth story. To be frank, I still do not it ,maybe because there are so many gods , and I can not remember them all. Maybe because I always think that the Greece myth story is not the real thing. They are just made up by the authors . But until I know that there is a god who killed his father and married his mother, I was totally attracted by this tragedy . Or I can say I was fascinated by him. So My favorite hero in ancient Greece is Oedipus. As we all know that Oedipus is one of the most typical tragedy roles in foreign literature of ancient Greece. He is the son of the king Laius and the queen Jocasta in Thebe in ancient Greece. And the The Oedipus complex is also from this hero.I love this role and Oedipus. From my perspective, he is a strong, responsible, brave, smart upright man. That is why I appreciate him so much. The Plot summary is like the following. Laius is the son of the king Labradors in Thebe, because of the lack of father in his youth, and the guardian was killed by the state enemy, so all of his rights as the offspring of the king were deprived completely. Then he defected to Pelops, having a job as a tutor for his son Chrysippus. But Laius fell in love with the beautiful guy Chrysippus, and he kidnapped him, finally led the death of Chrysippus. In this way, Laius betrayed his own benefactor, so Pelops cursed him that he would be killed by his son someday.Laius became the king of Thebe. Then after he married Locasta, the oracle “he would be killed by his own son ”from Pelops confirmed again. Because he felt very fear about this oracle, so he always avoid to have sex with his wife.Although there is no express sexual performance, but this story, obviously reflect the relationship between gay for men of taboo (though in reality of Greek society common) and men from a oneness in the social system of women hate (misogyny, misogyny) psychological.In one day, after drunk, Laius had sex with his wife, so led to the birth of Oedipus. That is to say, Laius did not mean to accept this son. The newborn baby was throw into tai Rong cascade of barren hills. Obviously, his intention is to kill this unnamed son. But he did not do it by himself, but abandoned the baby to a natural environment where people can not live normally.However, Laius son was saved by a sheepherder, and he was named after his injured feet , that is “swollen feet”, namely Oedipus. He became the adopted son of neighbour countrys king Polybus and the queen ink los cypress who did not have child. In the palace, he was treated and raised up as the their real son. And he was designated as the heir. Gradually he began to doubt his birth. Then he came to the holy of holies Delphi temple asking Apollo oracle, and finally was told that he would “patricide marry a mother” destiny. In order to avoid the oracles cash,Oedipus determined to return to his biological parents that their king and queen of the city had the Tos and toward the direction of Thebe city.At this time in Thebe city, in order to punish Laiuscrime to Chrysippus,Greece divine divinity queen Hera brought the lion with a succubus sphinx, the whole city is in extreme panic. As well known, that sphinx requirements passerby solution on four legs in the morning, walk with two feet to walk at noon, and on three in the evening walk foot what animal riddle. No one can solve riddles, she swallowed Thebe city citizens.Thebe king Laius hoped that through the oracle find a method to repel sphinx. on the way to the Delphi temple, and toward thebe city direction walking, Laius and Oedipus face-to-face. Because the narrow road can only accommodated one person through, and the two people did not know each other, the king Laius rudely command Oedipus away, finally they fought each other. Then the king Laius was dead, but Oedipus did not know that the person he killed was his father.After entered into Thebe city, Oedipus cracked sphinx riddle, made the banshee in shame himself. After saved the Thebe city, he married the queen in Thebe city. so he has fulfilled his word will patricide marry a mother oracle.After they got married, they had two daughters and sons. Because of Oedipus unknowingly committing action, married a mother great sin, pestilence and famine came to thebe city. Looking for disaster indulge in willful persecution, Oedipus finally learned the truth. Also know the truth of the Russian kaas te killed himself, and, after that, Oedipus thorn blind their eyes, in Antigone traction drift under the four winds, then get beat back the monster Camino TaoLuoSi Theseus protection, finally died from the goddess of the holy land. He stood in front of the citizens and admitted that he was the murderer of father, and married his mother. He was the rascal who was cursed by the gods, and was the evil of the earth. But Theban did not abandon this king they once loved and respected. They felt sympathy for him, even the Creon did not laugh at him. And he brough this person who was punished by the gods into the chamber. Heart broken king Oedipus who disobeyed her deeply moved, he put the throne to Creon, let him replaced his two young sons to reign the country. In addition, he also requested for his unhappy mother to build a tomb. He also put his daughter to the new king. As for himself, he was willing to go abroad, because he was banished to double iniquity defiled the land. And he said, he should be burned to death in Thai Rong the top of the hill, there was the place where parents abandoned him. It was his destiny to be or not to be. Finally, he once again called her daughter. Hand over their head, with their farewell. He thanked Creon for their deep friendship, and to pray for him and the people always be the protection of the gods.Artistic features:Superb structure: the locking type structure, namely in the high tide constantly return to the past, in the discovery process turn plot. Optimize the combination of circumstances, depending on the needs, set a variety of interconnectedness of foreshadowing. Robust and the idea of dramatic conflicts supplement each other.Center thought:To show the will of people and the fate of the contradiction, to show that hero is brave, honest, kind, and dares to undertake the responsibility. Outstanding performance the accidental and inevitable complex relationship, the fate of the uncertainty, but. This is our destiny in western myth all point of view.Oedipus complex:Oedipus complex is also said as Oedipus complex, it is a psychoanalysis terms. The founder of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud (Sigmund Freud) suggested that children in sexual development object selection period, began to seek outside sex objects. For children, the object is first parents, the boy to mother for selection and the girl is often in his fathers selection. The child made such a choice, on the one hand, is due to its own eros, is also due to the stimulation of the parents to strengthen this tendency, that is due to the mother and father son preference preference contributed to the daughter. In this situation, the boy told his mother there was a kind of special tender feelings, depending on the mother for his own possession, and the father as the property with the enemy, and want to replace the father in the status of parents relationship. Similarly, the girl think mother interference of fathers tender feelings, encroached on her position should be accounted for. Therefore, there are also Electra complexWhen it comes to Electra complex, there is another important Greek myth story I must introduce to you. Mycenae king, Greek king of kings, the son of Atreus Agamemnon troop buildup, is ready to go on a punitive expedition Troy. Before starting a game, he will be the harvest quite abundantly, boasting a way: even if is the goddess of hunting JianFa also just so so. So enraged the gods. Hunting goddess Artemis, the door for you to own daughter Phgena and sacrifice to her, will be for expedition army blowing wind. Agamemnon ignored his wife Clytemnestras Stella and the opposition of the daughter will sacrifice. Army then to Troy. The assistances Stella decided to revenge Agamemnon, and happened amour with Aegisthus .After ten years, Agamemnon as the Greek army commander in chief triumph, but his wife and her lover with a plot to kill the axe to wash his ten years of war and tired in the bathtub. Then slain and Agamemnon back to Trojan princess, female priests Cassandra. The assistances Stella and her lover Aegisthus rule the country. The son of Agamemnon Orestes was secretly send to the border of Chuguo by a loyal servant of his father, and was taken in by the king of s method to. The daughter of Agamemnon Electra was imprisoned in a castle by his mother. Many years passed, Electra has grow up as a beautiful woman. In order to make her offspring have no ability to revenge, Clytemnestras Stella and Aegisthus will marry her to a remote place a farmer, but for her sympathy and respect, her husband and her only keep a fake spouse relationship.And local farmers also always protect her. Time did not washed the her love for her father, the years of shame fanning the flames of anger in the bottom of her heart never go out. Elektra always hopes het brother can come back for revenge for their father. Finally, in the eighth years, the divination shows that the chance of revenge is coming. In the grave yard of Agamemnon, Electra and her brother recognized each other. With the help of prince Pylade in s method to, her brother and her successfully killed her mothers lover Aegisthus in the god of wine party. And then Electra designed a plan that let her mother assistances Stella leave the palace(she lied to her mother that she had birth a little prince, need her to hold neonatal for her son.)and then killed their mother together with her brother. We all know that it is a kind of iniquity which against the god. And make them become fury Eumenides the victim. Fury is always follows them, and their conscience is always suffering from the contrition. Electra and her brother only can request the shelter of the gods,but even the gods asylum also can not make them get rid of the nemeans tracking.Finally, Athena presided over the court, the judge the revenge for the father and the murderers who killed their mother. The accused and the defendant not dispute. Finally decided to vote for the newspaper to determine father vendetta death mother is guilty. But the number of supporters and critics of consistent, the key is a ticket in hand of Athena. Im not born to mothers with the person, I am from father Zeus head jump out, so I maintain the rights of man. Athena support Electra elder sister and younger brothers behavior, to acquit them.So after this Greek myth story, there is another complex, we called is Electra complex, which means the daughter loves her father more, so just always against her mother in the real daily in a abnormal way. When we put this two complex, it will be a little weird, because we all know that it is totally different, and we can not compare them at the same time. But compared with Electra complex, I think that Oedipus complex will be more acceptably. Why ?because from this two stories, obviously we can get the information that Oedipus married killed his father , but at that time, he did not know that the old man who against him is his father. And at the climax of the story, he married his mother incidentally, because he did not the woman is his mother, neither. This is totally a tragedy. He did not know the truth. We can say this is his inevitable fate.we all know the original sin , maybe this his original sin since he was born to this world. So we can forgive him, and he is innocent.From another aspect of this tragedy, it can be proved that this is his inevitable destiny. at the beginning of the story, their parents knows that his son Oedipus will destroy their happy family, and in order to avoid this tragedy, they abundant him. Then after Oedipus grows up in another family ,when he hear that one day he will kill his fother and his mother, he left his adopted parents(he did not know that his now parents is his real parents) and went to another country by himself. But unfortunately, he still meets his real parents .However at the end of the myth story, after he knows that he did killed his father and married his mother, he felt painful ,and thought he is a flagrance man, he sabed his eyes. This end is not pleasing for me, maybe for everyone. He is innocent, it is not necessary for him to hurt himself just because of his tragedy which caused by his inevitable fate.I like him not only just because of his fealty for his parents and his guilty, but also for his brave and smart. When he faced with the challenge from Sphinx,(which kind of animal have four legs when in morning, and have two legs in noon, but have three legs in evening ?), he successfully handle. So from this section, we can clearly guess how clever he is. After all, in the history, no one can get the right answers.Another reasons that I like him is his goodness and brave. Many people had been died from the riddle of Sphinx. Maybe he did not know whats the right answer, but in order to save all the countrys residents, he just had a try. And finally , he used his braveness saved all the people. He is really something. The only pity is that just because of his this success, he married his mother. Then as a father ,I think he is the most perfect in the world. After his wife, or his mother suicide , he just stabbed his eyes. Then he h
