“Unveiling the Untold: Discover the Enigmatic Lost Sequels of The Iliad That Could Rewrite History!”
After the Titanomachy is the Theban portion of the cycle. Ever heard of Oedipus? He’s a firm part of the Theban cycle, made up of the Oedipodeia, The Thebais, and the Epigoni. The first poem in the cycle, the Oedipodeia, is the literary source for all the Greek and Latin plays about Oedipus. There are key differences between the Epic version and the theatre versions of Oedipus’ story, however; one such difference is he never bore children by his mother Jocasta in the poem. The Thebais is also the source for many plays and poems this time about the siege of Thebes, an event that spins out of the Oedipodeia. The Epigoni covers a second siege of Thebes.
