HW

One crime show that really interests me is criminal minds. This show is all about different serial killers, kidnappers, psychopaths, and so much more. The reason why i love it so much and its so interesting is bescause i can see what people were capable of. Not only that but the background story and reasons of why they would commit such horrifying crimes. They usually have mental illnesses, sad scarring lives, or passive agressive. This kinda makes me appreciate life more and makes me think that why no one notices or helps people like this sometimes.

Homework: Reread the section of the text from this lesson, from “At least first listen to what I have to say” through “it is not yours alone” (lines 658–766). Use several of the following vocabulary words to summarize the argument between Oedipus and Creon: allegations, betrayed, reproach, spurred, and rash

In this part of the story Creon and oedipus are having a conflict.Oedipus is like Creon's best friend and acuses him of killing king Laius and for being greedie. Oedipus feels that Creon is out to get him and acts very rash towards Creon because of it. At first Creon felt betrayed about the allegations but then defended hiself saying why do i need your power i have my own.

Picure for hw


Hw summary

Today we found out where Jocasta ran away to. She ran away to her room and broke down from the horrors and calamities of her life and hung herself in her bedroom. Oedipus sees the horrifying sight of his wife/mom dangling with her neck tied around a rope. He was so disturbed and devistated from the loss of basically the only person he has left he gouges out his eyes with brooches. Thus this action fulfilled the prophecy of Terisias saying that he will end up blind and alone.

Mind blown/opinion

I really can't believe this happened. I feel really bad for jocasta because suicide seems like the worst way to die. I also feel bad for oedipus because this prophecy is his life....his fate and no matter what anyone did it sadly occured and all the things he has seen and done was so unbearable tht he gouged his eyes out.

BLOG POST: How does Oedipus’s response to Creon change the Chorus’s attitude towards Oedipus in lines 626–628?

The chorus's attitude changes after oedipus's response. The seem to be less and less on his side. I feel there opinions are changing because there realizing how defensive he is over his throne. They are realizing that he doesnt care who you are that he will do anything for power

Refrigerator
