Yes, Antigone knows that violators of her uncle, Theban King Creon's law are to be punished. The law requires non-burial of the disloyal Theban dead. The punishment is death by stoning. Antigone indicates knowledge of both the crime and the punishment in the beginning of the play. For she discusses both subjects with her sister Ismene, whom she asks to be an accessory.
It is unknown why Antigone chooses to commit suicide in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone does not discuss her suicidal intents with anyone. She does not leave a suicide note. But suicide is seen in ancient Greece as an acceptance of wrong in some commission or commission regarding the gods. Or it is viewed as a readiness to move from life into death, which are Antigone's consistently expressed sentiments.
That it becomes a question of what the betrothed couple will do is a complication of Haemon being engaged to Antigone in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess does not act as though she has anyone's welfare to care about other than herself and dead family members. Her sister, Princess Ismene, insists that Antigone and Haemon are very much in love. But Antigone never mentions Haemon.
Antigone is about a woman named Antigone who is the daughter of Oedipus (a character from another of Sophocles' plays). Her two brothers die, one was considered a traitor though and the king Creon forbids anyone to give him a proper burial. But Antigone values the eternal law over Creon's temporal law and decides to bury her brother Polyneices anyhow and that is where the action of the play begins.
Ismene reacts with fear. She wants Polyneices to be given an honorable burial as much as Antigone does, but she is far too terrified to do it herself because of the death penalty that Creon has imposed for anyone who attempts to bury Polyneices. Out of fear, she refuses to help Antigone bury Polyneices. However, later on, she attempts to die alongside her sister for the crime that Antigone committed by herself.
Assertive and independent versus cowed and timid is the contrast between Antigone and Ismene in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone does not mince actions or words. She knows what she desires and does not care what anyone else thinks. In contrast is her younger sister, Princess Ismene. The scars from her parents' humiliating overthrow and her father's miserable exile run deep. She screams at the sight of her own shadow and can think of nothing other than avoiding the equivalent of a hollering or a spanking from her uncle, King Creon.

I promised my friend I would not tell anyone.
It is her fanaticism that is the offensive aspect of Antigone's attitude in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone believes strongly in her family, her gods, and her city's cherished traditions. She is on the correct path, but she packages everything passionately, single-mindedly and uncompromisingly. She makes insulting remarks to anyone who dares to have an opposing view. She refuses to seek common ground or compromise.

In the story "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee, Jem found a single grey hair in the box that Scout was given by Boo Radley. This was something that Scout promised not to tell anyone about.
Antigone questioned the ruling of Creon, the King (unthinkable for anyone, especially a woman), because she wanted a proper burial for her brother. Creon tells her explicitly to go to bed, but she states she will go out that night a bury her brother again against Creon's wishes. Anarchy is going against the will of government or the ruler, and Antigone certainly does that.
