Abstract
Oedipus the King and Thunderstorm, two famous tragedies of fate at home and abroad, have many similarities in plot structure, core conflicts, and artistic presentation. However, they are also different in characters, cultural context, theme connotation, and value orientation. Focusing on the comparative analysis of their common concept of fate, this paper not only showcases how Cao Yu inherits and expands the connotation of fate in the ancient Greek tragedy, but also discusses the universal dilemma of human beings within the “inevitable fate” as a motif, appreciating the beauty of human nature and eternal dignity displayed by their fight against fate.
