Hello Seniors.
Before we embark on a journey into Oedipus the King and the novel Things Fall Apart, an African tragedy, we need to get some background on the subject. You will be placed in groups based on the following topics:
Aristotle's Concept of Tragedy
Greek Culture
Greek Gods
Greek Honor and Leadership
Greek Theater
Sigmund Freud's Oedipus Complex
Please use the links provided as your foundation for research. You may also use alternative sites.
You will have one class session to get as many pertinent details down on a poster for class presentation. We will present your findings to the class during the following class session. Try to provide the class with as much background information as possible.
