Hola a todos,
Estoy traduciendo un documento relacionado con la tragedia y personajes trágicos y como se ajustan a los parámetros de los personajes de la tragedia clásica.
Tengo problemas traduciendo la siguiente frase al inglés:
el personaje asume constantemente las obsesiones características de los personajes trágicos de inspiración edípica y prometeica.
My attempt:
the character constantly assumes the characteristic obsessions of tragic characters that have an Oedipal and Promethean inspiration
Thank you in advance. Gracias de antemano!!

How about:
"...tragic figures inspired by Oedipus and Prometheus"
By saying "figures" this time you don't have to repeat "character" twice in the same sentence.

Oedipus or Prometheus inspired
My stab at it (I'd have used 'dran from' but it makes the sentence a bit clunky):
... the obsessional (traits) behaviour of Oedipus or Prometheus inspired tragic roles
