No, Antigone is not ambivalent about her sacrifice in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone accepts her punishment when she decides to comply with divine law and disobey a royal edict. She does not consider any other action acceptable. Beyond the information given in the play, she is carrying out her promise to Polyneices in "Oedipus at Colonus" that she will see to it that he gets buried since Polyneices fears that he will not survive the attack in defense of his legitimate claim to the Theban throne.
If Antigone disobeys Creon's Law in "Antigone," Antigone is to be sentenced to death.
Antigone
In "Antigone," Antigone is resolute and defiant, willing to sacrifice her life to honor her brother Polynices, while Ismene is more cautious and submissive, initially refusing to help Antigone due to fear of the consequences. In the present play, their behaviors reflect a similar dynamic, with Antigone's unwavering commitment to moral duty contrasting sharply with Ismene's inclination toward conformity and self-preservation. This fundamental difference underscores the themes of individual versus state and the moral dilemmas faced by women in a patriarchal society, showcasing Antigone's heroic defiance and Ismene's pragmatic approach.
