In Greek times, woman were considered property. They were not allowed to have or express opinions. Antigone's blatant disregard of this made her "arrogant" in Creon's eyes.
I would say arrogant and haughty
Arrogant and stubborn versus generous and selfish are ways of comparing and contrasting Antigone and Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone and King Creon demonstrate arrogance in their respective interactions with royalty and with the gods. They exhibit stubbornness in their refusal to back down or seek common ground in their interactions with each other. But Antigone is generous in caring about her brother Polyneices, her family, her gods and her people. Creon thinks only of himself.
Yes, Antigone has hubris or excess virtue that dooms her in 'Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the term hubris describes an exaggerated sense of self worth, arrogance, pride. Theban Princess Antigone is arrogant in thinking that she can disrespect King Creon, the gods' earthly representative in Thebes. But at the same time, she may be said to have excess virtue because of her uncompromising love for her family and loyalty to the gods.
Arrogance is a meaning of hubris in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, hubris describes a personality that is arrogant and proud and has an exaggerated sense of self. The description fits Theban Princess Antigone as well as King Creon. For example, Creon thinks that he can issue an edict that contradicts divine will and Theban traditions. Antigone thinks that she can respect the gods but disrespect their earthly royal representative.
It is through Antigone and Creon that hubris is expressed in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, hubris refers to "an exaggerated sense of self, arrogance, pride." Theban King Creon is arrogant and proud and shows an exaggerated sense of self when he issues an edict that contradicts the will of the gods. Antigone likewise shows an exaggerated sense of self, arrogance and pride when she disrespects Creon, her uncle, her sovereign and her intended father-in-law.

Arrogance, fear, pride and uncontrolled emotions are the tragic flaws in the characters of "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, arrogance causes Theban Princess Antigone to believe that she can honor the gods by obeying their law but dishonor them by disrespecting their earthly representative, the equally arrogant King Creon. Fear leads Princess Ismene not to help her sister Antigone give their brother Polyneices' body the below ground burial that he deserves and is his right. Pride and uncontrolled emotions motivate Antigone, Creon and Prince Haemon to such a degree that they ruin every opportunity for reconciliation.
If Antigone disobeys Creon's Law in "Antigone," Antigone is to be sentenced to death.
