A series of three plays is the part of "Antigone" by Sophocles(495 B.C.E. -- 405 B.C.E.).

Specifically, "Antigone" is chronologically last in the series. It is preceded chronologically by "Oedipus at Colonus." This play in turn is preceded chronologically by "Oedipus the Rex."

What is Antigone's treatment of her sister in 'Antigone'?

It depends what part of the book you're talking about. It's been a little while since I read it, but as I recall, Antigone is loving towards her sister, however, believes that she should follow her own morals rather than her sister's suggestions.


What values are expressed in the Greek play called Antigone?

There are many values such as ethics, loyalty, family, and religion(when she defies Creon and buries her brother.) It really depends on the part of the play you are reading.


When were 'Oedipus Rex' and 'Antigone' written?

By 442 B.C.E. the play "Antigone" was written, and then by 429 B.C.E. the play "Oedipus Rex" was written.Specifically, the plays are part of the tragic story of Theban King Oedipus made famous by Sophocles (c. 496 B.C.E. - c. 406 B.C.E.). In terms of the myth's unfolding, "Oedipus Rex" represents the first installment of the story. The second installment is contained in "Oedipus at Colonus," which was written shortly before the ancient Greek playwright's death. The third installment, which was released first, is "Antigone."


What symbolizes the burial of Polyneices in 'Antigone'?

A covering of dust over the body and the pouring of ritual oil symbolize the burial of Polyneices in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone does not have the strength to give her brother Polyneices a proper below-ground burial. But it is acceptable to give him a partial burial. The first part of the partial burial is achieved by covering Polyneices' body with dirt until no body part or clothing or accessory is visible. It is time-consuming, but do-able by Antigone. The second part is pouring ritual oil from a bronze ewer over the body.


What is Antigone's view of life in 'Antigone'?

Controlled by fate, dominated by the gods and eclipsed by death is Antigone's view of life in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone believes that the life of each mortal is custom designed by the Furies of fate. She concludes that the all knowing and powerful gods rule in life and in death. She feels that life is brief and dominated by the far greater part of human existence being spent in the Underworld of the afterlife.
