8- In Oedipus Rex, Oedipus, and by extension the audience, experiences a catharsis after he discovers the the truth about his parents. Previously Oedipus had now known who his true parents were and had unwittingly killed his father and married his mother. After Oedipus learns the truth, he shocked and horrified. This is the catharsis he goes through. After the revelations are known, he becomes a changed man. Before, Oedipus was a great king who believed himself to be powerful. Afterward he is humbled by the experience and understands that the course of life is not always determined by the traveler. These emotions would have been conveyed to the audience at around the same time as it was conveyed to Oedipus. The sudden knowledge of truth emphasizes how great the discrepancy was. Aristotle probably thought that this was an excellent play. All of the elements he believed go into a good play where included, including the three unities, the tragic flaw, and catharsis.
