A dictatorship is the vision of rulership set forth by Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban King Creon views rulership as effective if citizens are obedient and ineffective if they question any aspect of authority. He sees rulership as successful if the ruler makes all decisions and the citizens have absolutely no input. Additionally, he considers rulership as all-encompassing, whereby the ruler bullies his family as well as dominates the personal and professional lives of his people.
