Why didn't Antigone want ismene to share her death
Hubris(excessive pride or arrogance)
Yes, Creon is the tragic hero. His flaw is his hubris (of course) and his recognition is after Tiresias comes and his reversal is when he buries Polynices and then goes to try to get Antigone back. Too late..
Creon's tragic flaw is hubris, thinking he can set the laws of human beings above the laws of the gods.
Odysseus' tragic flaw is his pride.
Antigone herself is not the tragic hero of Antigone. The tragic hero of Antigone is Creon. Creon is a well-intentioned king, that comes from royal blood, but he brings his death upon himself with his tragic flaw. His flaw was that he paid more attention to the laws of man and easily forgot about the power of the gods. After everyone that he loves dies, Antigone (his niece), Haimon (his son), and Eurydice (his wife), he becomes a better person and changes his views. However, it is too late for Creon by the end of the tragedy, and he is too weighed-down by his own guilt. He chooses to die.

Burying her brother Polyneices was a tragic flaw for Antigone. The burial was a flaw, because it disobeyed the recent decree by Theban King Creon about the non-burial of the disloyal Theban dead. The flaw was tragic, because it resulted in Antigone's death. Violation of the law was punishable by a capital sentence. Antigone was walled up in a dark, remote cave. Soon afterwards, she committed suicide by hanging herself with her halter.

Arrogance is Creon's most obvious tragic flaw in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specirfically, arrogance describes an exaggerated sense of self, pride. Theban King Creon therefore exhibits arrogance when he issues an edict that contradicts divine will and Theban traditions. He expresses arrogance when he mistreats everyone with whom he interacts: Princess Antigone, Prince Haemon and Teiresias the blind prophet.
