That it is a play that is written during the classical age of ancient Greek literature is the reason why "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.) is a classical Greek drama.Specifically, the term classical Greek describes the great age of literary output during the fifth century B.C.E. in ancient Greece. The term drama describes plays, such as comedies and tragedies, that are presented on the stage before a live audience. The story of "Antigone" indeed is told in the format of a play whose writing tends to be dated to around 440 B.C.E., or the mid-fifth century B.C.E.
