What is the motivation of Antigone in the play 'Antigone'?
Respect for the gods, family and the afterlife are the motivations of Antigone in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone must choose between obeying and disobeying a recent law that contradicts divine will and Theban traditions. She chooses her actions to be motivated by respect for the gods and for family. She says that mortals spend more time dead than alive and that she must be able to look her family in the face when they all meet again in the Underworld of the afterlife.

Who is the protaganist in Antigone?
Antigone
What is Creon's motive on Antigone's death?
You can say 2 things 1= selfishness. Creon wanted to seem like a strong king who wasn't to be messed with. He wouldn't let Antigone live as he wasn't going to be beaten by a girl. So you could say he was sexist and that his selfishness motivated him to kill Antigone. 2= He thought he was doing the right thing as he believed Polynices was a disloyal person to the dead king, so he thought that Antigone was being disloyal as well. Both answers can be justified with text from the story. hope this helps:)

Why is Antigone angry with Ismene?
First, Antigone is angry with Ismene for docilely and passively accepting the rule of mortal men. Ismene thinks that men rule and women obey. Antigone doesn't think that way at all.Second, Antigone is angry with Ismene for not helping to bury their brother Polyneices. Antigone doesn't have the strength to do a below ground burial. Without Ismene's assistance, their brother will get a symbolic burial by being covered with a thin layer of dirt. That isn't going to be much protection against the weather and wildlife.Third, Antigone is angry with Ismene for suggesting that the illegal partial burial and funeral service be kept secret. Antigone equates that with cowardice and self centeredness.Fourth, Antigone is angry with Ismene for trying to join her in a death sentence after not joining in on the lawbreaking. Antigone has a strong personality that's motivated by passionately held convictions. As far as she's concerned, you don't change horses in mid stream. So she takes someone at their first word and accepts no flip flopping. You're either with her or against her, with nothing in between.
