How are Antigone and Oskar Schindler related?

Answer 1

Antigone and Oskar Schindler are two people who both go against the law to do what they know is right inside. Antigone knows that she must honor the dead, so despite the law that says no one was allowed to bury polynices (or ecophycles I forget which) she does. In Oskar's case, the Nazi government says that Jews are less than human, and need to be exterminated. Oskar saved over 1000 Jews in his factory. The so called "crimes" of both characters were punishishable by death, but both kept on, because death would be preferable to living with the guilt of doing nothing.

So Oskar and Antigone are both people who follow the unwritten laws we know inside to be right, not the laws of tyrants. That is how they're alike.
