Antigone represents youth in her idealism, her passion, and her selflessness. She thinks that she can defend her beliefs and live without compromise. She doesn't realize that life in the real world is a seesaw balance between the individual's dreams and the society's demands. Antigone also thinks that righteousness makes right. She doesn't realize that the most successful changes often are made slowly. Neither does she realize that irritating insects may be trapped more easily and readily by sugar than by honey. Her intensely passionate belief in the rightness of her cause leads her to not mince words. In so doing, she insults her sister, Ismene. And she disrespects her uncle and future father-in-law, Theban King Creon. She demands respect for her actions and beliefs, but doesn't return the respect to others. Additionally, Antigone has all the ardent selflessness of youth caught up in life and living. Her heart bleeds for those whom she loves and against whom she witnesses injustice. She has none of the cautious trappings of the older and wiser who thnk beyond their own generation.
It is Antigone's very last lines that represent the climax and the anagnorisis in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone characterizes herself as suffering precisely because she obeys divine will and respects the gods. That statement constitutes her discovery (anagnorisis). It also identifies the climactic point of greatest tension during her interrogation and sentencing.
No, Ismene admits fear, practicality and youth instead of fear when she turns her back on her sister in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Ismene refuses to help her sister Antigone bury their brother Polyneices. She is practical in her fear since the crime carries the death sentence. Additionally, she shows her youth since Antigone as a young engaged woman must be older than Ismene who is single and unspoken for.
Personal loyalty to family and the gods versus impersonal dedication to job and to government are what Antigone and Creon respectively represent about loyalty and laws in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone acts from the heart. She defends her family, her gods and her cherished Theban traditions. In contrast, her uncle King Creon operates from the brain. He thinks in terms of the numbers of losses and wins in carrying out the responsibilities of his job as king and in running the city government of Thebes.
Oedipus' daughters are Antigone and Ismene. They are central characters in Sophocles' tragedies, particularly in "Antigone," where Antigone defies the king's orders to honor her brother's burial. The sisters represent different responses to the challenges posed by their family's tragic fate.
That ultimate authorities collide in their rightful demands for obedience is the way in which Antigone represents the tragic collision of right against right in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone complies with the measures of divine law and Theban tradition. But this compliance is on a collision course with royal law. Royal law illegally makes Antigone's point of obedience an example of disobedience within the royal law.
That she has an incomplete idea of adulthood and that she still prioritizes the nuclear family are ways in which Antigone's youth affects her decision making in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone still is in the input stage of life. She looks to what her family expects of her for its survival as a unit. She thinks in terms of family unity instead of her own individual mission and worth.
