How can I list all the roles and privileges of roles in Oracle? Can I get the details of the activities they perform? Please guide.
Thanks.

You can use the below views to find role related informations,

DBA_ROLES - Roles in DB
DBA_ROLE_PRIVS - Roles granted to users and roles
ROLE_ROLE_PRIVS - Roles which are granted to roles
ROLE_SYS_PRIVS - System privileges granted to roles
ROLE_TAB_PRIVS - Table privileges granted to roles

A role does not perform any activity.

select table_name, comments from  dictionary where lower(comments) like '%role%';

Helpful tips you shared both. One more thing, why there is error when dba_roles is used in prod whereas the same view can be used in dev? Thanks again for many useful tips.

Here is how I get the error:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
What does this mean w.r.t prod?

You have not the privilege to query this view (or less likely the catalog is not installed).

query VIEWs posted in this thread.

Do you know how to write SELECT statement?

It would be helpful if you followed Posting Guidelines - http://www.orafaq.com/forum/t/88153/0/

What does this mean? I wanted to know the granted roles and privileges of each role in one query. Thanks to everyone.

Just what it is written.

You have the views to query, just SELECT on them. What is your problem in this task?

select privilege from dba_sys_privs where grantee='YOUR USER' order by 1;
select granted_role, default_role from dba_role_privs where grantee='YOUR USER' order by 1;

this query also helpful to you to show particular role assing to particular user
