Without resorting to the jargon often employed by contemporary
critics, this book covers all major aspects and questions raised by
the play. The text contains a thorough examination of the contrast
between Athens and its dramatic opposite, Thebes, a contrast best
represented by the comparison between each city's primary
representative, Theseus or Creon. Wilson offers a radical rereading
of the Oedipus riddle and concludes with a substantial discussion
of the play's (and playwright's) role in providing a political and
moral education for the troubled Athenian polis in the last decade
of the tumultuous fifth century.
