No, Antigone is not a tyrant in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, a tyrant refers to a ruler who holds power by an illegal seizure. Theban Princess Antigone holds no power and aspires for none. She therefore is not a tyrant.
It is in her treatment of others that Antigone can be described as a tyrant in "Antiogne" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the term tyrant describes a person who seizes power illegally or who treats others in arbitrary, harsh and oppressive ways. Theban Princess Antigone particularly exhibits tyranny in her interactions with her sister Princess Ismene and her uncle Creon. Antigone holds strong convictions of right and wrong in regard to divine will, family ties and Theban traditions. She oppresses, represses and suppresses any belief contrary to her own.
That he illegally holds power and is an arbitrary rulerare reasons why Antigone calls Creon a tyrant in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the term tyrant describes an illegal power holder or any harsh ruler. Both descriptions fit Theban King Creon. Creon holds power because he conspires with his nephew Eteocles to deny his other nephew Polyneices' legitimate royal claim. He rules harshly by denying to his perceived enemies their god-given rights as Thebans to below ground burials.
If Antigone disobeys Creon's Law in "Antigone," Antigone is to be sentenced to death.
