Antigone is the person to whom Creon accuses Haemon of being enslaved in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban King Creon considers all opinions unwelcome other than his own and all people as replaceable. He particularly disdains the feelings and opinions of women. He therefore dismisses his son Prince Haemon's devoted defense of Antigone as a sign of weakness, as enslavement by a completely replaceable woman.
