abstract="Examines the Oedipus complex (OC) from its origin in ancient mythology and its representation in literature, suggesting that one can find in the Oedipus tale and its variations almost all aspects of human conflict and dilemma. It is argued that Freud was interested in the psychological significance (i.e., the developmental phase in childhood that he called the OC and the origin of the superego) of the Oedipus drama. What Freud was suggesting was a phylogenetic basis for the OC and its connection to the family triad of father, mother, and son. Within the context of the OC, issues such as parricide, incest, child abuse, infanticide, and siblicide are explored.
