“Human Conscience Transcends Prophecy of Fate: Following Sophocles’ Oedipus at Colonus” is a drama about the Greek mythological characters Oedipus and Antigone in the tercet stanza. The play unfolds an imaginary trial of Oedipus at the divine court of the final judgment of the dead in Hades. How he is absolved from crimes he had committed inadvertently to avoid what the fake oracles falsely attributed to Apollo by his sly, vile foes. Thus acquitted, Apollo invites Oedipus to re-enact his past in a play, Human Conscience Transcends Prophecy of Fate, to be performed in Olympus for the gods to watch and appreciate. But Oedipus politely declines it as he wishes to transcend into nobody. Antigone was elected to be a new member of the divine judges at the court of final judgement. After Oedipus’ awe-inspiring transcendence into nothingness at peace, Apollo gives up his plan in despair. But Hermes offers to Apollo that he will assume the crucial tragic role of Oedipus to perform the play in Olympus. Antigone and Hermes embrace in sublime love.
