In the play 'Antigone', Haemon tends to accept the authority of his father, Theban King Creon. In fact, he starts out saying, 'Father, I am thine; and thou, in thy wisdom, tracest for me rules which I shall follow. No marriage shall be deeemd by me a greater gain than thy good guidance'. But he counsels caution in the face of public opinion, and of genuine love for his first cousin and fiancee, Antigone. In fact, he responds to his father's question 'Am I to rule this land by other judgment than mine own?' with 'That is no city, which belongs to one man'. And of his fiancee, he says, 'No, not at my side - never think it - shall she perish' nor shalt thou ever set eyes more upon my face: - rave, then, with such friends as can endure thee'. As with Antigone, therefore, Haemon ultimately appears to believe in the authority of god-given justice and traditions by which Thebans live and die.
Abigale's lies lead to the deaths of the accused. She must be stopped, even if it means her death.
That it is hired needy thugs whom Creon believes bury Polyneices in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon hears about the forbidden burial of his nephew Polyneices' body. He immediately is suspicious that people who need money are the culprits. He thinks that his powerful but cowardly enemies are hiring financially strapped underlings to undermine royal authority by disobeying the edict of non-burial of the disloyal Theban dead.
In William Shakespeare's play "Julius Caesar," the irony lies in the fact that Caesar's body is lying at the base of Pompey's statue. This is ironic because Pompey was Caesar's rival and the one whom Caesar defeated in battle. By having Caesar's body lie at the feet of his former enemy, Shakespeare highlights the cyclical nature of power and downfall in politics. Additionally, it symbolizes the inevitability of fate and the transient nature of authority.
Antigone's loyalty lies primarily with her family, particularly her deceased brother Polyneices, whom she feels a moral obligation to honor through a proper burial, despite the edict from King Creon prohibiting it. Her commitment to familial duty and divine law supersedes her loyalty to the state, showcasing her belief in the importance of honoring the dead. This conflict highlights her tragic struggle between personal loyalty and societal expectations. Ultimately, her actions reflect a deep allegiance to love and duty over power and authority.
In the beginning of the Antigone play there are the two brothers that died in battle against one another. Polyneices and Eteocles whom are the brothers of Antigone and Ismene. Towards the end of the play Antigone commits suicide by hanging herself with her halter after being isolated in a chamber by Creon (her uncle i think). After seeing Antigone dead, Haemon (Haimon - who loves Antigone) commits suicide by stabbing himself in the side with his own sword. Once the messenger spreads the word of Haemon's death his mother, Eurydice, commits suicide while cursing her husband Creon's name. I believe she stabbed herself in the heart. Ismene should still be alive at the end of the play all though they do not really say if she is or not. -Five people total die in Antigone that I know of.
We believe in God.
"Those to whom evil is done do evil in return." Basically if someone does something bad to you, you're gonna do something bad to somebody else. Which I don't believe, but I hope I helped!
