Why must both Eteocles and Polyneices receive honorable burials according to Antigone?
Because for one they are both family to her in the end as well as the gods want proper burials for every person
How does Sophocles view Antigone and burials in 'Antigone'?
That god-given rights need to be respected and that conflict between divine and royal will does not mean disrespectful behavior towards a royal are how Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.) views Antigone's actions and burials in "Antigone."Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone is correct in defending god-given rights of all Thebans to below ground burials. She is incorrect in speaking disrespectfully to her uncle, King Creon, even though he is in the wrong. Even when in the wrong, royals must be treated respectfully since they are the gods' representatives on earth.
Why does Creon become angry with the chorus in 'Antigone'?
It is when the members suggest divine involvement in the proscribed burials that Creon becomes angry with the chorus in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon hears that his law is broken and his nephew Polyneices' body is given a partial burial. The chorus offers the suggestion that the gods are behind this since divine will demands below ground burials for all Thebans, be they loyal or not to their hometown. Creon angrily rejects the very notion.
What law does Creon pass in 'Antigone'?
An edict on non-burial of the disloyal Theban dead is the law that Creon passes in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon issues a royal edict by which below ground burials are given only to Theban loyalists. Exposure above ground to weather and wildlife is the way in which the enemy Argive and the disloyal Theban dead bodies are to be treated. But Creon's edict contradicts divine guarantees to all Thebans of below ground burials and proper funeral rites.
Does Antigone do the right thing by burying her brother in 'Antigone'?
Yes, Antigone is right about burying Polyneices in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Thebans are guaranteed by the gods of below ground burials. Below ground burials are part of Theban traditions. They express respect for family and reverence for the gods. It is disgusting for dead Thebans to be left lying above ground and exposed to ravaging weather and scrounging wildlife. It also is vindictive since the dead so exposed must seek entry as disfigured, dismembered entities into the Underworld of the afterlife.
