Test Question

What was the climax of Oedipus Rex....

And how would the story be different if it was in a different sequence?  Think literary terms...WHAT about the writing would change?

hint:

it is not.....  "The story would not make any sense."

  5. when the messenger told the story about what happened. The story would not make sense starting out that he was married to him mom straight off the bat. You would be confused and you would not know what led up or how she had him or got his name. You would be confused.

  9. It's when he found out he married his mother. It wouldn't be the same because that was later in the story so if we would have started there we wouldn't have really cared.

  12. the climax was the messenger told Oedipus that his mom was his wife. And that less drama will happen if the climax was in the bringing in the story.

  14. The climax of Oedipus Rex is King Lauis died of natural causes. If it was the beginning it takes away the drama.

  22. The climax was when the messenger told Oedipus that his mom was his wife. The story would be different in the story if the climax was in the beginning because then Oedipus wouldn't have to find the killer he would have already known he was the killer.

  23. the climax is when queen Jocasta told Oedipus about her prophecy and how it didn't come true then Oedipus wouldn't think that he is the killer. and jocasta may not have died

  24. The climax was when the messenger came and told the truth, if the climax would have happened before then Jacosta wouldn't have died and Oedipus would't have married his mother.

  25. The climax is when King Lauis was murdered. The story would be different fs the messenger said everything earlier in the story.

  26. the climax is when the messenger told Oedipus that he killed his father. the story would be different,and shorter if the climax was toward the beginning of the story because then they would already know and they wouldn't have to have a long story about them finding out later in the story.
