No, Antigone doesn't undergo a reversal in terms of her convictions. But yes, she undergoes the reversed fortune that's characteristic of tragic characters. On the way to the remote cave where she'll be walled in, she regrets leaving behind no one who cares enough to mourn her. Likewise, she regrets the fact that she'll be accused of impiety because of her piousness. But she doesn't regret the act of respect to her brother's corpse, by carrying out the proper rites and rituals of burial.
So Antigone never lets go of her beliefs. She keeps up her stubborn sense of right and wrong even in the face of death. The worst of reversals in fortunes in fact happens to her. She has a protected social position as the descendant on both parents' sides from Cadmus, the founder and first king of Thebes. She also has the protected social position of being first cousin to and fiancee of Haemon, the son of currently reigning Theban King Creon. But these hallowed positions don't protect her from being arrested, tried, and punished. In fact, her punishment is death.
Antigone is the static character in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. -- 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, a static character does not change. Theban Princess Antigone is the only main character who never budges from what she believes, does, says and thinks. She is that way in the course of the play, and Creon characterizes her as always being the same and unchanging foolish self since birth. In contrast, all the other main characters are dynamic in that they undergo changes in behavior and beliefs.
How there can be any unused up suffering left is what Antigone wonders in the first lines of "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone believes that she and her sister, Princess Ismene, know suffering as the daughters of cursed King Oedipus. She does not imagine how there can be any grevious experience left for them to undergo. But then she hears of her uncle King Creon's decree of non-burial of the disloyal Theban dead.
Answer #1 by Ginezumi Both Antigone and Creon were tragic figures. Antigone was tragic, because she died for having tried to respect the unchangeable, unchanging laws by which the gods expected Thebans to lead their lives and prepare for their deaths. Creon was tragic, because he lost everything that made his life worth living. For example, his son and his wife each committed suicide rather than continue living with him and under his laws. Answer #2 by Lexi3333 You can interpret it either way, but it seems more likely that Creon is the tragic hero. According to Aristotle, there are several requirements for a character to be a tragic hero, including:-Hamartia, or flaw/mistake;-Peripeteia, or reversal of fortunes;-Catharsis, or release of emotion;-Anagnorisis, or sudden realization of truth.Creon goes through all these stages:-His character flaw/mistake is his pride and stubborness.-His fortunes are reversed after everyone starts to turn against him, and even his son and wife kill themselves.-After learning of his son's and wife's deaths he goes through catharsis, and releases his feelings of grief.-He realizes at the end of the play that he was wrong.Antigone also has some of these characteristics. Her mistake is that she is too stubborn, and she goes through an outburst of fear and self-pity after she is condemned to death. It is debatable whether or not her fortunes are reversed, because she does not go from a high status to a low status as does Creon; her condition is miserable from the beginning of the play. Also, she does not undergo any fundamental realizations of the truth, and her beliefs remain consistent throughout the play.
Martin Avdeitch is a dynamic character because he undergo an important change in the course of the story through his realization at the end of the story that God is always there for him. Moreover, I conclude that Martin Avdeitch is a dynamic character because if he's a static character in the story he does not undergo important change in the course of the story, remaining essentially the same at the end as he was at the beginning. ~> genelyn_198920@yahoo.com see yah at facebook 4 some comments.. tnx!

There are generally three types of characters in literature: round characters (complex and multi-dimensional), flat characters (lack depth and complexity), and dynamic characters (undergo significant change throughout the story).
You can be stimulated to produce a lot of eggs which are then removed from your ovaries by laparoscopy. You then undergo IVF.
There are static characters, those individuals in a work who do not undergo significant change by the end.There are also dynamic characters, those individuals in a work who do undergo significant change by the end (for instance, if a greedy person were to realize the error of his ways and become generous).
In "The Golden Goose," the round characters are the characters who undergo significant development and change throughout the story. These include the protagonist of the story and his companions who accompany him on his journey, such as the knight and the princess. They are portrayed with complex personalities and evolve as the narrative progresses.
Flat characters are two-dimensional and lack depth, while round characters are complex and fully developed. Static characters do not undergo significant change throughout the story, while dynamic characters experience growth or transformation.
These are called static characters, because they don't usually undergo any major changes during the action.
