How did the dramatic irony of 'Oedipus Rex' arise from the audience's knowledge of the myth?
In Oedipus the King, Oedipus feels ill at ease because he does not know the true story of who his parents were, or how he came to be king. Oedipus feels that when he knows these things he will be happy. The audience knows (and Jocasta suspects) that the knowledge will be disastrous for Oedipus (and it proves so). The dramatic irony is that Oedipus is destroyed by his quest for knowledge; even though seeking out knowledge is usually a good thing.
