..THIS ASSIGNMENT INFURIATES ME

Sophocles lived in the 5th century BC. Roman Catholocism did not exist. The seven deadly sins did not exist. The Oedipus plays were not influenced by the concept of the seven deadly sins.

GRRAAAGGH!!

and the actual myth came about way the frick before that, even. so the conclusion is:
mrs. loretta a. condino-grupp is a dumb-ass.

also, she really likes to put in two totally different topics in her essaqys, which makes it really hard to have a thesis that addresses the whole essay and not seem off topic. you can eitherwrite an essay about the seven deadly sins influencing the works, or you can write about how shakespeare was influenced by sophocles. not both. those are two different topics.

i stuck the thing about shakespeare randomly in my conclusion.

Not to mention, sometimes the idiot translator guy made reference to "God" as in SINGULAR

And it pisses me off

That was Emily

actually i asked someone about that once and they do that, apparently. it's not in reference to the christian God, it's like... to zeus, or to all of the gods at once, or something?

but it's correct.

the ideas of the seven deadly sins have been around far before 5th century b.c., just because they werent deemed the name the 7 deadly sins dosent mean that his plays werent influenced by them.

i hate LAC grupp already.
