I'm not sure...this came up in my english class recently believe it or not.  I don't think the mother's desire for a son is classified anywhere (maybe).  But what I do think has been classified is the daughter's desire for the father. Yeah my teacher wrote this on the board, and said "I bet you never thought you'd hear this in school." Its called the Penis Complex or Penis Desire. lmao seriously...that came up in a 12th grade english class haha.\n\nOh yeah the elektra complex. I forgot. sorry.

Heres a short synopsis of the play:\nA bizarre and witty account of marital breakdown\nKenneth is a man with a weakness for fatty foods and skinny women. His mid-life crisis forces him to favour the latter, so he trades in Hilary - his stoic wife of twenty years - for the younger, prettier, slimmer (and more culinary-challenged) Laura. However, he quickly regrets his rash decision and finds himself torn between the delights of Laura's bedroom and Hilary's kitchen. The three eventually meet for a 'let's all be grown-ups' meal round at Hilary's, where Kenneth discovers he can no longer have his cake and eat it, as the women regain control... This play sounds bizarre and is, but it also says a lot about human weakness, loyalty, and the consequences of selfishness. It's also extremely funny, with such classic lines as "go and have deep throat sex and leave me here in my sparkling kitchen!"\n\nand a review:\nOn entering the theatre we were confronted with a setting which in it's Spartan simplicity suggested we were about to witness a Grecian Tragedy, which I suppose in a way we were. \n\nKenneth and Hilary were married for nineteen years. Nineteen years in which Hilary in her spick and span kitchen has prepared, cooked and served gargantuan meals for Kenneth who, to put it mildly, has a healthy appetite. \n\nThen Kenneth meets Laura who seems to represent all the things he thinks he has been missing. They embark on an affair, which quickly descends into a vortex of lies and deceit. Laura is young, sexy and finds Kenneth sexy. There are however a couple of problems – Laura is a bit of a slut and she is a hopeless cook. So Kenneth starts slipping back to Hilary for a little culinary consolation. \n\nWe first meet the three participants at Hilary's house to which she has invited Kenneth and Laura (now three years married) for an anniversary dinner. A dinner which Hilary with murderous and vengeful thoughts has prepared and is in the process of cooking very carefully indeed. \n\n  \nRay Newton & Loretta Freeman  \nSo a play about appetites or more correctly a play about hungry people. From the ageing Teddy Boy glutton Kenneth's constant cry of "I'm STARVING!!" through Hilary's loving, almost lascivious preparation of food and hunger for revenge to Laura who is on a diet anyway and so presumably always hungry not least for (as she elegantly phrases it) nookie. \n\nThere is pain and hurt here and sympathy is not confined to "The Wronged Wife". \n\nAs someone once said, "Every villain has his point of view" so Kenneth and Laura reveal during the progress of the play their own particular needs. \n\nThe play, delivered in a series of flashbacks stemming from the anniversary dinner at the beginning to the climactic last scene when Hilary serves the first course. "Mmmmm, fish for starters, fabulous! Fabulous!!!" Grunts Kenneth and proceeds to wolf not only his own portion but Laura's as well and inevitably starts to choke. \n\nThe play then veers into very black farce as the two budding Borgias from suburbia coolly watch as Kenneth writhes his last over the table and then calmly over a drink or two discuss the disposing of the body. Of course, HH \n\nHilary the cook has the answer! "Turn on the oven, 400 degrees F." she suggests, "We'll have to eat him, flush him down the loo".

That is the "To be or not to be" scene, one of the most powerful of the play.  Should one live or should one die?  He makes the suggestion that the only reason one would not commit suicide is because of fear of the afterlife .... in other words the devil we know is better than the one we don't know.   Hamlet is wallowing in his grief in a sense, but also blaming others for it.  \n\nThere is so much more to this scene than just the dialogue that is spoken.  It addresses relationships between men and women, there is a philosophical debate about the afterlife,  and it makes us wonder what actually does constitute madness.   In this scene we think we know that Hamlet is only acting crazy, but this scene can make us question that because of how he treats Ophelia.  So at this point is Hamlet really crazy or is he just acting crazy?  His behavior toward Ophelia doesn't make sense. He seems angry at the world and at women in general and at Ophelia in particular.\n\nI hope this makes some sense to you and is of some help.

The Three Theban Plays, by Sophocles. The three plays are Antigone, Oedipus the King, and Oedipus of Colonus.\n\nThese are by far the most famous Greek plays. and no wonder; it's plot and themes behind it are so complex and emotional.\n\nOther plays include "Achilles" by Aeschylus and "Orya" by Epicharmus

Tragic in the sense of greek tragedy means the change of luck, the falling from grace, the overturns of life. In the beggining of the play, Kreon is a strong King, a good husband and father, fair, hasnt done anything wrong, his people respect him and his is uniting his city after the civil bloodshed that happened due to the dispute between the brothers of Antigone.\nBut as the play unfolds Kreon gets blinded and ignors the laws of gods and humans, not because he has something to profit, but because he is too stubborn to see the other side and unable to admit his mistake. He is beeing arrogant, inflexibel and cruel. He is fixated on the letter of the law and doesnt see the human side of things, although he COULD see it, if he would let go of his ego and listen. As a result, he loses his son, his wife and the respect of his people. He pays for his egoism and his disregard and ends up a devastated man.\nIn my opinion, Oidipus is the most tragic figure in greek tragedy, for he is punished for something he could not have easily forseen, and it is exactly this game of life that constitutes tragedy.

There are physiological ones and there are psychological ones.\nI don't know much about the physiological kind but I have a good idea about the psychological kind.\nThink of a latin word, attach philia to the end and that's a paraphilia for whatever the Latin word is.

Lets give Wikopedia the star here:\nPsychological/Existential: The play seems to be also a verbal play on the concept of seeing, that sometimes the last thing a person "sees" is his own character. Freud of course, took literally Jocasta's comment that all boys dream of getting into bed with their mothers. Taking Oedipus' obliviousness to his crimes as a metaphor for his repression of this boyish desire, Freud built his theory of the subconscious mind.\n\nOh, yea this guy is left for dead, found by a shepard, comes back and marries his mother, kills untold numbers of people...and we wonder why people today are a bit strange...ha ha ha.
