Antigone believed her brother, Polynices, should have been buried and honored just at Eteocles had been. Creon believed that Polynices was a traitor for attacking Thebes and therefor left him to rot in the field. He also sent out a decree that no one was to bury him.
In Sophocles' "Antigone," Creon despises acts of disobedience and defiance against his authority. His primary hatred is directed toward Antigone for her refusal to comply with his edict prohibiting the burial of her brother Polynices. Creon's rigid adherence to law and order leads him to view her actions as a personal affront to his power and the stability of the state. This conflict underscores his tragic flaws, including pride and an inability to accept differing perspectives.
Antagonistic is Antigone's attitude toward Creon's decree in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone has a negative attitude toward her uncle King Creon's edict of non-burial of the disloyal Theban dead. She is a believer in the old ways of cherished traditions, divine will and family ties. She opposes denying to enemies and granting to supporters god-given rights of all Thebans to below ground burials.
That at least one of them is illegal is Antigone's attitude toward the laws of Thebes in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone does not accept a conflict between a royal edict and divinely ordained Theban traditions. She expresses strongly supportive feelings for her family and the gods. It is not easy to understand her position regarding royals other than that their actions must be in line with divine will and that King Creon's non-burial edict does not do so.
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.
In Sophocles' "Antigone," the titular character demonstrates a sense of resolve and acceptance toward dying. She believes that honoring her brother Polynices and adhering to divine law is more important than her own life. Antigone's willingness to face death reflects her strong moral conviction and the belief that true honor lies in standing up for one's principles, even in the face of fatal consequences. Ultimately, she views death as a noble sacrifice rather than an end to be feared.

As king his laws must be obeyed, no matter what Antigone's reasons to bury her brother may be.
That it is dangerous is what Antigone believes to be important about Creon's values in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone dislikes her uncle King Creon's values. She is oriented toward the old ways of family, gods and traditions. She maintains that what Creon values is destructive to whoever is different from him and gets in his way.
Supportive and hostile are Antigone's respective attitudes toward her brother and her sister in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone cares about her brother Polyneices. She demonstrates that concern by burying his body and thereby helping his entry into the Underworld of the afterlife. In contrast, she does not demonstrate a similar care or concern for her sister, Princess Ismene. In fact, she makes reference to Ismene as being basely born even though the sisters share the same genealogy, parents and royal social status.
No, they are separate series.
Critical and supportive are the respective attitudes of the chorus in regard to Antigone and Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus criticizes Theban Princess Antigone for her disrespectful treatment of King Creon and for her uncontrolled passions. In contrast, they do not criticize Creon for the bullying, insults and threats that typify his interactions with Princess Antigone, Prince Haemon and Teiresias the blind prophet. The chorus members therefore show a consistently critical attitude towards Antigone and a uniformly supportive attitude toward Creon.
