OEDIPUS
Laii Thebanorum Regis et Iocastae filius ἀπὸ οἰ δήματος τῶ ποδῶν, hoc est, ô tumore pedum, ut Euripidi placet, Seneca Tragoedus, in Oedipo, Actu 4. v. 812.
Forata ferrô gesseras vestigia
Tumore nactus nomen, ac vitiô pedum.
Hunc pater, cum ex Apollinis oraculo futurum intellexisset, ut a filio occideretur, pastori necandum tradidit; qui misericordiâ commotus, cum invitus regiae stirpi manus inferret, neque tamen regis imperium detrectare auderet, perforatis gladio plantis, vimineque traiectô, ex arbore suspendit, futurum putans, ut ita inediâ moreretur. Ceterum, cum Phorbas Polybi Corinthiorum vel Sicyoniorum regis pastor, illâc iter faceret, auditâ vagitu, eo accurrens, puerum servavit, reginaeque, quae liberis carebat, magni muneris locô obtulit, a quâ, veluti puer caelitus missus, filii locô educatus est, et a pedibus ex vulnere tumentibus Οἰδίπους appellatus. Grandior deinde natu factus, cum se non Polybi silium audisset, patrem perquirere statuit, et consultô oraculô accepit, se in Phocide patrem inventurum. Quo cum venisset, ortâ inter Phocenses seditione, Laium conantem reprimere tumultum incognitum interemit. Postremo, tamquam oraculô lusus, Thehbas petens, in itinere in Sphingem incidit, quam, problematibus soluti (unde Terentii illud, in Andria Actu 1. sc. 2. v. 23. Davus sum non Oedipus, cuius Plautus quoque meminit, in Poenulo Actu 1. sc. 3. v. 34.) cum occidisset, Thebas intravit, et quoniam Polybi filius credebatur, Iocastam matrem insciens uxorem duxit, et ex câ 4. filios genuit. Postea vero, cum se matrem sibi coniugiô copulâsse patremque occidisse cognovisset, dolore percitus, sibi ipsi in poenam oculos eruit, quem postea caecum Antigona filia circumduxit, et se occidere volentem prohibuit. Alii dicunt, quod repudiatâ matre, Astymedusam duxit uxorem, Athenas autem in voluntarium concessit exilium. Fabulam huius habes apud Sophoclem, et Senecam in Oedipo, et Euripidem in Phoenissis, Diodor. l. 1. Stat. l. 1. Theb. Senec. Hygin. Apollodor etc. Hinc Oedipodionius. Ovid. Met. l. 15. v. 429.
Oedipodionae quid sunt nise nomina Thebae?
Nic. Lloydius. De excaecationis modo, Vide supra. Diodor. vero Siculus indicare videtur, fabulam meram esse, et caecitate illâ circumscribi conclusionem intra certam domum eius, cum caecitatis nullam faciat mentionem l. 4. Τῶν δ᾿ ὑιῶν ἀνδρωθέντων, τὸν μὲν Οἰδίπουν ὑπὸ τῶ ὑιῶν ἔνδον μένειν ἀνατκαςθῆναι, διὰ τὴν αἰχύνην τοὺς δὲ νεανίσκους παραλαβόντας τὴν ἀρχὴν ὁμολογίας θέςται παῤ ἐνιαυτὸν ἄρχειν. Cum autem filii adolevissent, Oedipodem quidem ab illis coactum intus manere, pudoris ergo; ipsos autem susceptô imperiô, alternis annis illud administrare constituisse. Vide Barthium Animadversion. ad Stat. passim, inprimis Theb. l. 11. v. 345.
