Whom does Antigone bury in 'Antigone'?
Polyneices is the person whom Antigone buries in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Polyneices is Theban Princess Antigone's brother. His body is left above ground at the end of the recent civil war over the Theban royal succession. Antigone decides to give her brother's body the below ground burial to which he is entitled as a Theban native.
How does Antigone violate Creon's decree in 'Antigone'?
That she buries one of the disloyal Thebandead is the way in which Antigone violates Creon's decree of non-burial of Theban traitors in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon announces that the god-given rights to burial and funeral rites will be respected only for those who die fighting for Thebes in the recent civil war over the royal succession. Princess Antigone, Creon's niece and intended daughter-in-law, buries her brother Polyneices, who dies fighting against Thebes and defending his claim to the Theban throne. She therefore is in compliance with divine law but in violation of Creon's edict.
What happens to Antigone's two brothers in 'Antigone'?
Death in a duel is what happens to Antigone's two brothers in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Eteocles and Polyneices are the older, twin brothers of Theban Princesses Antigone and Ismene. They inherit the Theban throne after the disgrace of their father, former King Oedipus. They are supposed to share the royal powers by alternating years of rule. But Eteocles refuses to hand over the crown when his year is up and even exiles Polyneices. Polyneices leads an army of disgruntled Thebans and invading Argives and storms Thebes. The two brothers kill each other in a duel during the final battle of the civil war over the royal succession.

What is Antigone's opinion of Polyneices in 'Antigone'?
That he deserves his Theban rights is Antigone's opinion of Polyneices in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Polyneices is Theban Princess Antigone's brother. He is the legitimate heir to the Theban throne even though he loses his claim and his throne in the final battle of the first civil war over the Theban royal succession. His uncle, King Creon, leaves his body above ground even though all Thebans have god-given rights to below ground burials. Antigone says that Polyneices deserves a hero's burial every bit as much as the one that Creon gives to Eteocles.
