you realize you are in a tragic conflict‚ and if you can change the way you are acting to avoid it. Nussbaum brings up an example of the story of Antigone. In this tale‚ The king Creon tells the entire city that anyone who offers burial to the traitor Polynices will also be considered a traitor to the city‚ and be put to death. Immediately Antigone knows that she cannot agree with Creon’s ruling because Polynices is her brother‚ and not seeking burial for her kin would be a violation of her fundamental

Eurydice has the role of a very minor character in Sophocles’ play‚ Antigone‚ yet she represents major life lessons and themes that Sophocles implies throughout the play. The Queen is seen and heard through the lines of other characters. Her silence can speak louder than words. She only has seven lines‚ yet she does not have to say much in order for us to understand her important role as a queen‚ mother‚ and wife. We can interpret her values and traits through what other characters say and imply

People with power are usually disliked or even hated‚ because people do not like to be ruled over. In this world‚ the amount of power one has dictates the amount of respect and trust they receive. Like Creon‚ if one has a large amount of power they will almost always be disliked. Creon‚ the king of Thebes‚ is an extremely powerful ruler‚ so much so that many people fear him. In fact‚ he is so feared‚ he could even be called a tyrant. The sentry that reports Antigone’s “crime” is nearly shaking

Greek play and a fairly modern American novella together‚ but I believe students may learn from contrasting these two works. Antigone by Sophocles and The Pearl by John Steinbeck offer two very different portrayals of women. Antigone and Juana are both female main characters. However‚ these two women deal with their respective cultural gender roles very differently. Antigone is strong and brave in the face of danger. When her brother is dishonored in death‚ she knows she must give him a proper burial

In Antigone‚ Sophocles positions the readers to condemn Creon as a misogynist. In Antigone‚ Creon is the newly appointed ruler of Thebes‚ and after banishing all burial rights to Antigone’s brother‚ Polynices‚ Antigone refuses to obey this order and buries him anyway. Creon is pitted against Antigone who holds up the will of the gods and the honor of her family above all else‚ and thus he appears to be against these values. His behavior‚ however‚ suggests otherwise. He aggressively preaches the

In order to understand how Bree Newsome echoes Antigone‚ one must first compare who they are vaguely. Both Bree and Antigone are of the same gender and attempt to prove women power. Women are not often portrayed as strong‚ but delicate. The time period that Antigone was written women were supposed to obey all rules. Antigone was not the woman that followed the law. On the other hand‚ Bree Newsome was a woman and colored too. As quoted by Nonprofit Quarterly writer Shafaq Hasan “‘It was decided

Moutaz Maharem Mrs. Milewski AP Literature 9/23/12 Reaction Assignment- Antigone by Sophocles I agree with Creon’s belief than an individual’s true nature can only truly be assessed when that individual is placed in a position of leadership. When someone is put into an important role like that in any society‚ he either fails or succeeds while doing the job. When one does not meet the expectations of his citizens‚ he is destined to disappoint them and not receive another term in that role of
