It is through divinely ordained fate and flawed personalities that the chorus explains tragedy in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, the chorus considers as tragic the recent deaths in the Theban royal family. The chorus members define tragedy as the relentless working out of divine will and the Furies of fate. But they do not diminish the tragedy of Theban Princess Antigone's uncontrolled passions or of King Creon's foolish and stubborn arrogance.
The Chorus are basically the citizens.
Romeo and Juliet's tragedy is greater than Antigone and Haemon's tragedy. This is because Antigone and Haemon's tragedy was fated by the gods. Romeo and Juliet's tragedy was the result of their and their families actions and could have been avoided.
The flaw in Antigone that the chorus pointed out to her in Scene 4, line 45 was her lack of respect for human laws. This flaw would lead to her death, and the chorus blamed Antigone for her own demise.
The chorus comments on the actions of the main characters in the play 'Antigone'. Most of their comments deal with the actions of Theban King Creon. But the chorus also comments on the single-focused passionate fury of Antigone.
Yes.

Tragedy.
Yes.
The question is asked by me. I have got some ideas. If we are supposed to teach genre for ex. Tragedy. From the history to the modern tragedy. Explain the jargon with the help of movie clips. For ex. Chorus. What is Chorus? I can easily explain it with visual basis. Using technology is very convenient for the students.
Catharsis
Antigone is the person whom the chorus blames for her trouble in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus blames Theban Princess Antigone's stubbornly passionate contrariness in showing no respect to King Creon in terms of his laws and in terms of his person as her uncle, sovereign and intended father-in-law. But at the same time, the chorus charges Antigone's parents with serving as improper role models. The chorus also concedes that Antigone's personality is hardened by her family's uphill struggle against multiplying, relentless divine curses against the Theban royal house.
maybe its because your so fat
That the chorus leader expresses amazement is what makes the audience feel that the chorus cares for Antigone when she is brought back with the guard in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus leader can interact directly with other characters. He immediately inserts himself into Theban Princess Antigone's upcoming interaction with the guard and her uncle, King Creon. He offers an opportunity for Antigone to defend herself on the basis of the unexpectedness of her as the perpetrator.
That she is to blame for her own predicament is the chorus' reaction to Antigone's plight in her final scene in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus reminds Theban Princess Antigone of her own choices. They say that respect for the gods is important, but does not entail offense to royal rulers. They state that Antigone's willful spirit and uncontrolled passion put her on the road to her death by live burial.
