Which greek word best describes oedipus's realization?
alexgriva [62]
I would say Anagnorisis. This means when a character makes a critical discovery, in this case he finds out he was sleeping with his mom and killed his father. It also means a change in what a person stood for. He stood for finding who was the killer, and cursed him, only to find out its him.
