in various health classes in order to meet
graduation requirements. Because of these classes

curses on myself" (Madden 37). With this
announcement, Oedipus is aware that his pursuit
for order has led to a life of chaos. The central

Plato, the Greek philosopher is considered to be
one of the greatest thinkers in history and is
called by one scholar the fountainhead through
