Riddling between Oedipus and the Sphinx: Ontology, Hauntology, and Heterologies of the Grotesque

By Yuan Yuan

The Riddling between Oedipus and the Sphinx, Ontology, Hauntology, and Heterologies of the Grotesque probes the polemic status of the other and the dubious nature of the subject from a heterodox perspective of an emblematic grotesque figure, the Sphinx--the mystical trickster and the guardian of sacred knowledge in Egyptian culture.
