That it goes from respect to anger is the change in Haemon's attitude towards Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).

Specifically, Theban Prince Haemon begins his conversation with his father, King Creon, in a deferential and respectful tone. But he has trouble maintaining his calm and reason in the face of his father's contradictions, insults and threats. It is when Creon makes insulting and threatening remarks about Haemon's beloved first cousin and bride-to-be, Princess Antigone, that the son begins to replace patience and respect with disrespect and anger.

When does Creon change his attitude in 'Antigone'?

It is after Teiresias' prophecies and during his conversation with the chorus leader that Creon changes his attitude in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Teiresias the blind prophet cautions that what goes around comes around. The mourning and suffering that all Thebes experiences over the unburied bodies of the disloyal Theban dead is heading towards the royal household. Theban King Creon maintains his insulting, threatening treatment of Teiresias until the latter leaves. Then Creon reveals to the chorus leader how shaken he is by Teiresias' prophecies. The chorus leader suggests a change in attitude and policy, which Creon actually carries out.


What is the chorus' attitude toward Antigone and Creon in 'Antigone'?

Critical and supportive are the respective attitudes of the chorus in regard to Antigone and Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus criticizes Theban Princess Antigone for her disrespectful treatment of King Creon and for her uncontrolled passions. In contrast, they do not criticize Creon for the bullying, insults and threats that typify his interactions with Princess Antigone, Prince Haemon and Teiresias the blind prophet. The chorus members therefore show a consistently critical attitude towards Antigone and a uniformly supportive attitude toward Creon.


How does Antigone's manner change in 'Antigone'?

That she seems to add an element of ironic regret to her rebellion is the way in which Antigone's manner changes in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone keeps up her attitude of rebellion against royal trespass into divine domains of responsibility. She may exhibit less determination than anger in her first interaction with her sister Ismene. She may express equal amounts of anger and determination in her interaction with King Creon and in her second interaction with Ismene. But by the time that she processes to her death, Antigone moves from determination mixed with angry comments about Creon to an almost ironic regret about dying because she defends divine will.


How does Haemon's attitude change toward Creon from the beginning to the end of scene 3 in 'Antigone'?

In the beginning of the scene, Haemon is respectfultowards his father, Theban King Creon. But he finds it difficult to remain respectful in the face of his father's hostility towards Antigone. Antigone is Haemon's beloved first cousin and fiancee. He and his father have known Antigone all of her life. So Haemon finds it hard to believe that his father can end her life without hesitation.Neither does Haemon understand how his father can think that emotions can be turned on and off, or reversed, in regard to a young individual who is supposed to become an even closer, more permanent part of their lives. So by the end of their interaction, Haemon no longer respects his father. In fact, Haemon's behavior and words go from respectful, to disrespectful, to outright antagonistic.


How has Creon punishment for Antigone change?

Well, honey, Creon's punishment for Antigone hasn't changed one bit. He sentenced her to be buried alive in a tomb, and last time I checked, that's still the plan. So, to answer your question, there's been zero change in Creon's punishment for poor Antigone.
