What does Creon threaten his son that he will do?

Creon threatens that he will kill Antigone before his son. This is particularly threatening because Creon's son has a passionate love (eros) for Antigone and they were going to get married.


In Antigone does Haemon threaten his father as Creon thinks?

No. Haemon says to Creon, "...And dying she'll destroy--someone else," and Creon, blinded by his ego, automatically takes this as a threat to himself, when in reality his son is telling him that he, Haemon, will not survive his future bride's death.


How does Teiresias persuade Creon to change his mind in 'Antigone'?

Teiresias does not persuade Creon to change his mind in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Teiresias the blind prophet warns Theban King Creon that the royal household will suffer the same death and sorrow as Creon inflicts hardheartedly upon Thebes. But Creon continues to insult and threaten his sightless seer and royal councillor. It is after Teiresias leaves and the chorus leader says that Creon needs to bury Polyneices and release Antigone that Creon changes his mind.


What does Oedipus threaten to do to Creon in 'Oedipus Rex'?

Execute or exile him is what Oedipus threatens to do to Creon in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus accuses Creon, his brother-in-law and royal colleague, of conspiring with Teiresias the blind prophet to grab all royal powers to themselves. The charge carries a punishment of execution or exile. Oedipus chooses execution.


What does Creon accuse Teiresias of in 'Antigone'?

Taking bribes from Thebes' enemies is what Creon accuses Teiresias of in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon seeks to end the pestilence in Thebes. He requests information from Teiresias the blind prophet. He dislikes Teiresias not rubber stamping royal actions and therefore accuses him of taking bribes.
