In the play 'Antigone', the main character of the same name and Theban King Creon are caught in a double bind. For Antigone can't show genuine respect to Polyneices' body without violating her uncle's kingly decrees. But the King can't revoke his laws without considering himself a weakling unworthy to lead the state.

Who does Ismene remind Creon of in 'Antigone'?
The love between Antigone and Haemon is what Ismene reminds Creon of in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Ismene tries to help her sister Antigone get a lighter or no sentence at all for disobeying the royal edict of non-burial of the disloyal Theban dead. She thinks that emphasizing the personal ties that bind the judge, her uncle King Creon, and the defendant may work. She therefore reminds Creon that Antigone is engaged to Prince Haemon, Creon's only surviving child and heir.
What does Creon order about Polyneices' body in 'Antigone'?
That Polyneices' body is to be left above ground, exposed to the weather and wildlife, and denied its god given right to proper below ground burial and funeral services is what Theban King Creon orders. It doesn't matter to Creon that Polyneices was correct in trying to right a wrong. Neither does it matter that Polyneices was Creon's nephew.What matters instead is Creon's decision to keep going in death the hatreds of a life. What matters instead is the conclusion that a disloyal Theban needs to be remembered as a traitor and not a hometown boy. So what matters essentially is the adage that what you bind on earth you bind in heaven. Specifically, it's that last act of righteous defiance by which Creon judges and condemns Polyneices, and not an otherwise apparently circumspect life.
