Hercules had to perform the labors as a punishment for a bad deed.
The Greek king, Athamus had gotten tired of his wife Nephele and married another, Princess Ino. Nephele was afraid for her children, Phrixus and Helle, but mostly for Phrixus because Ino wanted to kill him so that her own son could inherit the kingdom. Ino created an elaborate plot where the corn would not grow and 'convinced' the oracle to tell the King that the corn would not grow again unless Phrixus was sacrificed. The citizens forced the King to allow the boy's death, since they were all threatened with starvation. When Phrixus was taken to the altar, the golden ram had taken him and Helle to Colchis. Nephele had prayed, and Hermes had answered the prayer. However, while they were crossing the strait that separated Asia and Europe, Helle fell off the ram and drowned. The sea was named for her: the Hellespont.
Hera sent a mad spell towards Hercules because she hated him. In this rage, Hercules slayed his wife, megara, and children. He wanted to be cleansed of this so he went to Delphi which in turn directed him to a Kim who dealt out Herc's labours.

Some critics feel that the tragic hero of the play 'Antigone' is the main character of the same name. For a hero does great deeds, and has great power and strength. Antigone fits the bill in both regards. For she does the great deed of honoring divine rights and Theban traditions in burying her brother Polyneices. Additionally, she shows great strength in enduring the insults and threats of her uncle, Theban King Creon. Other critics feel that the tragic hero is the King. But the King does no great deed. Ultimately, he reverses his own law, which contradicts the perceived god-given rights by which Thebans live their lives and prepare for death. But he only does so out of fear for direly predicted consequences otherwise on his rule and his family.
