1. The Greek name of the tragedy is Oedipus Tyrannos. The word "Tyrannos" can be translated as "usurper," an absolute ruler who

has seized power, not inherited it. Oedipus succeeds to the throne not by birthright, but through force, wit, and influence—killing Laios (not knowing who he is), answering the riddle of the Sphinx, and marrying the queen. How does the title "Tyrannos" reflect Oedipus’ reign over Thebes? How does it reflect one of the most powerful ironies in the play?

Oedipus is not destined to be the king of Thebes but he, however, rises to be. Although the throne is his birthright, his parents for fear of the fulfillment of the prophecy decide to kill him. The duty is delegated to a servant and Oedipus ends in the hands of the king and queen of Corinth. From the events that transpire after his birth, Oedipus is not predestined to be the king. He is at first thrown out of the throne. He only comes back to his homeland in fear of his fate. He manages to be the king because he has all that it takes to seize a throne.

The word "dancing" indicates a positive mood of celebration, triumph and happiness. This pleasant mood is enhanced by the mention of Bacchus who is the god of agriculture and wine as well fertility, drama, and revelry. Hence, the best way to forget something negative like war is to celebrate with dancing and songs/music.
