Oedipus

Oedipus (Greek: Οἰδίπους, Oidípous; Hebrew: אודיפוס, Odipus; French: Œdipe; German: Ödipus) is a figure from Greek mythology, best known for unknowingly killing his father, Laius, and marrying his mother, Jocasta. The story of Oedipus was first told in the Theban plays of Sophocles, particularly in Oedipus Rex (also known as Oedipus the King). The term "Oedipus complex," coined by Sigmund Freud, refers to a child's unconscious sexual desire for the opposite-sex parent and hatred for the same-sex parent. In the context of Greek mythology, Oedipus is a tragic hero whose downfall is brought about by his own actions and a prophecy he tries to avoid. The story of Oedipus has had a significant influence on literature, psychology, and popular culture.
