That the gods rule is what Antigone proclaims in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone accepts the gods as the ultimate authority in life and death. She therefore chooses to be in compliance with divine law. She knows that when two authorities conflict, royalty must yield to divinity.
Passionate is what Antigone is like. In particular, she's passionate about divine will, family, and justice. This orientation tends towards recklessness.In contrast, obedient is what Antigone's sister Ismene is like. In particular, she's cowed by male authorities and their punitive powers as royalty. This orientation tends towards reluctance to stand out in a crowd.
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.
If Antigone disobeys Creon's Law in "Antigone," Antigone is to be sentenced to death.
