What the hell. Here's my list of literature everyone should at least try (in no particular order): Homer: both the Iliad and Odyssey Sophocles: Oedipus the King (read it - far better than you might think) Plato: The Apology of Socrates Sappho's fragmentary poems (the translation by Anne Carson titled If not, winter is especially good) Dante: Inferno Shakespeare:…
Aeschylus wrote The Oresteia when he was 65. I believe Sophocles wrote Oedipus the King at age 68, and continued writing through Electra (probably) and Philoctetes (which took first prize in Athens) in his mid- to late-80s.
Yes you do: Oedipus Rex, also known by its Greek title, Oedipus Tyrannus (Ancient Greek: Οἰδίπους Τύραννος, pronounced [oidípuːs týrannos]), or Oedipus the King, is an Athenian tragedy by Sophocles. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oedipus_Rex And I'm perfectly aware that you're trying, hard, to make some sarcastic point, but that's what everybody in the English-speaking…

埃斯库罗斯写《俄瑞斯忒亚》时已经 65 岁了。我记得索福克勒斯写《俄狄浦斯王》是在 68 岁，之后一直写作，在八十多岁中后期写了《厄勒克特拉》（大概）和《菲洛克忒忒斯》（在雅典拿了一等奖）。

你明明知道的：Oedipus Rex，也可以按它的希腊语标题称为 Oedipus Tyrannus（古希腊语：Οἰδίπους Τύραννος，发音为 [oidípuːs týrannos]），或者《俄狄浦斯王》，是索福克勒斯的一部雅典悲剧。https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oedipus_Rex 我心里很清楚你是在拼命想反讽点什么，但英语世界里的所有人都是这么……
