It is along the path from the Theban royal palace to a remote cave outside the city that Antigone gives her big speech before her death in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone exits from her home, the Theban royal palace. She is escorted by guards to the cave where she is to buried alive and starved to death. She shares her feelings about Creon, her family and the gods along the way.
The play "Antigone" was set in the kingdom of Thebes.Most of the action took place in and around the royal palace of King Creon. Some of the action took place in the forsaken area in which the dead Argive invaders and their equally dead Theban allies were left exposed to the elements, dogs, and birds. Some of the action also took place in the isolated, rocky cave that became Antigone's last home on earth.
The street on which the Theban royal palace stands is the street where Antigone lives in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone is the direct maternal and paternal descendant of Cadmus, Thebes' founder king. She also is the daughter of the late Theban monarchs Oedipus and Jocasta. She additionally is the bride-to-be and first cousin of Prince Haemon, only surviving child and heir to King Creon of Thebes. For all of the preceding reasons, Antigone can claim the royal palace as her one and only address in her hometown of Thebes.
Inside the royal palace of Thebes is where Creon passes the non-burial law in the play "Antigone" by ancient Greek playwright Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, in the Prologue, Theban Princess Antigone talks with her sister Ismene about the non-burial edict already passed by their uncle, Theban King Creon. The passage takes place inside the palace. But it is just outside the palace that Antigone discusses the edict in order not to be heard by others. It is also just outside the palace that later in the day Creon will make a public proclamation for those not yet in the know, in Episode 1.
to tell her about her plan to bury her brother
No one is specified as being buried with Antigone in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the covered body of Theban Prince Haemon is brought on a bier to the Theban royal palace. This is just after Haemon kills himself after finding his beloved Princess Antigone hanging dead from her own halter and after failing to kill his father, King Creon. No mention is made as to the disposition of Antigone's body.
Yes, the setting of the play "Antigone" can be different.Specifically, the concerns that the play addresses are timeless in when they can take place. They also are universal in where they can take place. So just about any time period, set or location may be used.
