It is to a wild eaglethat Polyneices is compared in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, the chorus describes in biased fashion the civil war that is started because of the denial of Polyneices' legitimate claim to the Theban throne. The members say that Polyneices swoops in proudly for the kill. But momentary triumph turns quickly to defeat for the wild eagle who offends the gods with boasts, insults and screams.
The chorus compares Antigone to her father, disgraced Theban King Oedipus. The leader specifies that father and daughter share the same wild, uncontrolled passionate outbursts that don't learn their lessons from suffering, pain, and misery. The chorus goes on to say that Antigone is the last, living hope from Oedipus' family. But she makes a mess of everything, because of her limitless fury, offensive disrespect, unrestrained passion, and willful stubbornness.

The structure of the song Firework by Katy Perry is Verse / Pre Chorus / Chorus / Verse / Pre Chorus / Chorus / Bridge / Chorus.
Intro, Verse, pre-chorus, chorus, link, pre-chorus, Chorus, Mid, Link, Verse then outro
if you go on donlowed and highlight the chorus then u will just will have the chorus
bass, guitar, or drums alone for a couple seconds in the beginning and then verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge, chorus. That's the basic structure but a lot of songs don't follow that (example: walking contradiction by green day, amazing song, it goes verse, verse, chorus, same verse as first one, chorus chorus).
Pop song structure is (intro) Verse Chorus Verse Chorus Bridge chorus (outro)
the chorus is the voice of the elders of Thebes
The chorus is made up of a group of dancers and singers. The same individuals perform both dancing and singing roles. Usually, the chorus numbers a total of about 12-16 performers. Specifically, in the play 'Antigone', the chorus is identified further as being made up of elder Theban citizens.
That they are his supporters is the way the Creon feels about the elders in Thebes in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus draws its membership from the most accomplished, respected and senior of Theban citizens. It therefore is there to be supportive to Thebes' ruler, the current king. Theban King Creon notices and appreciates the chorus' support.
The mood of the first chorus seems to be one of supplication and entreaty. The chorus wishes the pestilence that ravages Thebes to be ended. The members look to Theban King Oedipus as the problem solver.
Crops are blighted. The cattle are dying. Women are miscarrying or dying or both.
It is as the king's supporter that the chorus and the chorus leader are significant in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus draws its membership from the Theban elders. They include the most accomplished and respected of Thebes' senior citizens. They justify and validate the King's decisions. Their leader even may interact directly with Theban King Creon if need be.
The Theban elders is what the chorus represents in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus represents the consensus of the city's most accomplished and respected citizens. They have a reputation for wisdom and for support of the monarchy in general and of the monarch in particular. They express the view that all Thebes is supposed to hold.
Teiresias is the person whom the Chorus tells Oedipus to talk to in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Oedipus heads an investigation into the old, unsolved murder of King Laius, his royal predecessor. He is lost as to where to start looking for clues. The chorus suggests Teiresias the blind prophet, Thebes' wisest citizen and a walking library of past, present and future information about Thebes and Thebans.
Calling upon the gods for help is the chorus' reaction to Apollo's advice for Thebes in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus asks for divine assistance in identifying and punishing the guilty in King Laius' murder. The members call for help from Zeus the chief god as well as Apollo the god of prophecy, Artemis the beautiful goddess of the hunt, Athena the goddess of wisdom and Bacchus the wine god.
The chorus leader is Creon's supporter in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus leader is the designated spokesperson for the council of Theban elders. The elders represent Thebes' most accomplished and respected citizens. They tend not to contradict the reigning king or to oppose his policies.
The social role of the chorus is the voicing of consensus and conflict within Thebes. The psychological role is the articulating of the conflicts within the minds of the main characters. And the aesthetic role is the representation of the community onstage.
Yes, the chorus takes a position in the argument between Antigone and Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus draws its membership from Thebes' accomplished, respected, wise elders. The members therefore have closer ties to the reigning monarch than to any other character in Thebes. They indeed find nothing good to say about Theban Princess Antigone, whom they characterize as emotionally out of control as her father, disgraced Theban King Oedipus.
