Abstract

Learning is something desirable for Sophocles, yet is at the same time difficult to attain. The way in which some of his characters manage to learn, always too late, hightlights the need for man to adopt a critical position in relation to what he perceives, while still accepting his human limitations and acknowledging divine superiority.
