Oedipus and Harry Potter
Summary: Similarities exist between Sophocles' character Oedipus in ancient literature and J.K. Rowling's character Harry Potter in contemporary literature. Both characters initially lack knowledge of their lineage; both possess some form of humility in the beginning, but eventually develop a sense of hubris that results in a tragic flaw in their lives; and both live lives that are driven by prophecies made by soothsayers before their respective births.
