Considerada por Aristóteles como la más perfecta de las tragedias griegas, 'Edipo Rey' de Sófocles es un drama de revelación que explora la búsqueda de la verdad oculta tras las apariencias. La obra narra cómo una peste asola Tebas y Edipo, al consultar al oráculo de Delfos, descubre que la solución reside en vengar la muerte del anterior monarca, Layo. A través de una magistral ironía trágica, la historia desvela el ascenso de Edipo al trono y el descubrimiento de su parricidio y matrimonio con su propia madre.
Sophocles was an ancient Greek tragedian, one of three from whom at least two plays have survived in full. His first plays were written later than, or contemporary with, those of Aeschylus and earlier than, or contemporary with, those of Euripides. Sophocles wrote more than 120 plays, but only seven have survived in a complete form: Ajax, Antigone, Women of Trachis, Oedipus Rex, Electra, Philoctetes, and Oedipus at Colonus. For almost 50 years, Sophocles was the most celebrated playwright in the dramatic competitions of the city-state of Athens, which took place during the religious festivals of the Lenaea and the Dionysia. He competed in 30 competitions, won 24, and was never judged lower than second place. Aeschylus won 13 competitions and was sometimes beaten by Sophocles; Euripides won four.
