Sleep with Mythology

The Tale of the Sphinx's Riddle (Greek mythology)


Listen Later

In the soft whispers of the night, we tread gently through the ancient city of Thebes, cloaked in the mystery of Greek mythology and the shadow of the enigmatic Sphinx. Perched on a rocky precipice, this formidable creature with the body of a lion, the wings of an eagle, and the head of a woman once posed a lethal riddle to all who dared approach, casting a pall of terror over the city. Yet amid this fearsome challenge, a tale of human wit and the obscure winds of fate emerged when Oedipus, bearing his own hidden curse, stepped forth to confront the Sphinx. As we unravel the layers of this poignant myth, let the echoes of ancient wisdom and the quiet resolve of destiny lull you into a night of introspective slumber.This episode is hosted by William Davis.
