What is an example of imagery in 'Antigone'?
It is in the choral odes and Antigone's procession to her death that examples of imagery are found in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the term parados describes the first onstage appearance of the chorus of Theban elders. The chorus enters with a song of striking imagery. The song likens Polyneices' attack on Thebes to the flight of predatory eagles and the struggle of smoldering dragons.
What do the last two lines of antistrophe 3 mean in 'Oedipus Rex'?
In antistrophe 3 of the parados, the chorus concludes with a plea for Bacchus' help. Bacchus is a god who's liked while the war god Ares isn't. A military solution is feared and rejected, in the immediately preceding strophe 3. So the chorus asks Bacchus, 'blithe god whom we adore', to get any soldiers drunk. The drunkenness will remove the influence of Ares, the 'god whom gods abhor', from Thebes.

What is an apostrophe in drama?
I wonder if you mean 'antistrophe'. In ancient Greek Drama the chorus delivering an ode would move across the stage in one direction (the strophe) and then turn and move in the opposite direction (the antistrophe). But since in rhetoric an apostrophe means a diversion or digression, I suppose that the turning point when the chorus switches from strophe to antistrophe could be considered an apostrophe too.
