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.

grigory [225]

Before the Cherokee left on the Trial of Tears, the Cherokee people were divided, that was the best way to handle the government´s determination to get its hands on their territory. Some wanted to stay and fight, ohers thought it was better to agree to leave in exchange for money and other concessions.

In 1835 a few self appointed representatives of the Cherokee nation negotiated the treaty of New Echota, which traded all Cherokee land east of the Mississippi for US$ 5 Million, relocation assistance and compensation for lost properties.
