suspense, imagery and conflicts (self v. self, self v. gods, self v. fate, and self v. family)
Sophocles included many literary devices that helped tell the story. The most used literary device in the play is dramatic irony. Another literary device used by Sophocles is characterization. In Oedipus the King, Sophocles used characterization to portray Oedipus as the tragic hero. A third literary device used in the play is flashback, which is where the story switches from the present to an event that occurred in the past.
They are: Atmosphere, Allusions, Irony, Symbolism. But there are more.
To give a hint of future happenings is the way in which foreshadowing is used in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, foreshadowing is a literary technique by which the author hints at what may happen to a main character. For example, in the beginning of the play, Theban Princess Antigone foreshadows her own fate. She declares that the worst that will happen to her for breaking the law is an ignoble death. Death by live burial becomes her punishment, but hanging by her own hands becomes her actual fate.
