To die as punishment for breaking the law is what Antigone considers the most evil of all deaths in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).

Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone respects her existence as broken up into a short life and a lengthy after death experience. She therefore sees death as leading logically and nobly to where mortals are intended to go. But she states that death is not proud when it comes as a result of breaking the law and being punished.

What emotion most likely causes Ismene to want to join Antigone in 'Antigone'?

Love is the emotion that most likely causes Ismene to want to join Antigone in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Ismene argues against her sister Princess Antigone's burying their brother Polyneices out of fear of the lethal punishment. She ends their interaction saying that Antigone is dear to her. It is brave of her to want to join Antigone. She may be doing it because of the hopelessness of the situation. Or she may be doing it in the hopes of extenuating circumstances, leniency or outright pardon from their uncle, King Creon.
