Where Freud made incest the defining feature of the Oedipus complex, Rosa, inspired by C G Jung, looks beyond the complex to its archetypal roots. Probing deeper into the tragic hero's family history, Rosa finds the source of the doomed man's fate in the now-forgotten crime of his father, Laius. namely, Laius's abduction and attempted seduction of Pelops's beautiful young son. Chrysippus, long before Oedipus was born.
