That he and his city will benefit from Oedipus' death is the reason why Theseus gives sanctuary to Oedipus in "Oedipus at Colonus" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban King Oedipus calls to mind that his prophesied fate includes one good and two bad components. He describes the good part as relating to the place and significance of his death. He indicates that he will die a special death in a place sacred to the Furies of fate. It is to Athenian King Theseus that Oedipus confers that luck in exchange for sanctuary.
Where Oedipus is going to die is the theme of "Oedipus at Colonus" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus lives and relives on a daily basis the dreadful prophecy that results in his personal and professional disgrace. But he makes a stop at a grove near Colonus outside Athens. There, he remembers that the prophecy is not all bad. Indeed, the prophecy reveals that Oedipus will die a special death and that his burial place will give luck to its location.
The ancient Greek city of Thebes is where King Oedipus actually is from. But he leaves at least three days after his birth, for Corinth. There, he spends his childhood and adolescence thinking that he's the Corinthian-born and -bred son of King Polybus and Queen Merope of Corinth. As an adult, he flees to the Delphic oracle, a fateful crossroads, and then Thebes.Decades later, Oedipus is forced to give up his home and job, for a humiliating, miserable exile as a disgraced, blind beggar. He dies in Colonus, the home of an established, long-time, powerful, wealthy family whose most prominent member is Sophocles [496 B.C.E. - 406 B.C.E.], author of the cycle of plays about Theban King Oedipus.
Oedipus can be a loving, kind and caring father. He shows these traits in his request for his children's guidance and protection by Creon, his brother-in-law and uncle. The traits also are shown in his last fatherly interaction before being exiled. But readers and viewers of 'Oedipus at Colonus' find another side to that fatherly picture. Former Theban King Oedipus doesn't forget that neither one of his twin sons wants to see him after the discovery of their father's murderous, incestuous past. Oedipus curses Eteocles and Polyneices for their hardheartedness and their shame. Polyneices subsequent regrets his unforgiving nature, and tries to meet with his father. But Oedipus doesn't give up the hardhearted, stubborn, unforgiving, vindictive aspects of his character. He refuses to agree to a meeting even though he knows that it'll be his last chance to meet Polyneices in this life.
