Dodds (or someone of his caliber) published an article some time ago with a title somewhat along the lines of "On Misunderstanding Oedipus Rex". I wonder if someone can supply me (a) with the bibliographic details for this and, more importantly -- since I won't be able to get to a library for a few days--, (b) with a summary of the article's theses? Also, does anyone know if the university of Saskatchewan's (sp?) site which discussed the background to Oedipus and Greek tragedy is still online? Thanks Jeffrey Gibson -- Jeffrey B. Gibson, D.Phil.
