Similarities Between Antigone And Creon

This can be seen in many types of literature. Where there is a character that is figuratively blind compared to others around them. One example is in “Antigone” written by Sophocles. In the story, Antigone, there are two distinct characters that are blind Antigone and Creon. Antigone was sent to death by Creon because she tried to give her brother a proper funeral when Creon said not to. In jail Antigone said she had no other choice but to kill herself and so she did. She was blind to the fact that other people would come to help her get out. She was also blind to the idea that Creon would let her out and that she didn't have to kill herself. This blindness that she had gave her power because the actions she took effected everyone around her.
