What crime does Antigone feel she has to commit?
Antigone feels that she must commit the crime of giving her brother Polyneices a proper burial. The proper rites and rituals of burial are god-given, and can't be changed or legislated. And that isn't just the opinion of Antigone. In fact, this view is shared by many in Thebes. But Antigone's uncle, Theban King Creon, thinks that he can change divine tradition, through the making and enforcing of laws. And so he decrees that henceforth proper burial procedures are to be carried out only for the loyal Theban dead. All others, including Theban collaborators, are to be left above ground and exposed to the elements, dogs, and birds.
