What are the storms that Creon identifies as threatening to destroy the ship of state when he first addresses the chorus in 'Antigone'?
The recent civil war over the royal succession are the storms threatening to destroy the ship of state according to Creon's first words to the chorus in "Antigone" by Sophocles (B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, the civil war's last battle is fought the day before Creon addresses the chorus of Theban elders. Its origins lie in Theban King Creon's nephew Eteocles refusing to honor the joint power sharing arrangement by which he is to alternate years of rule with his twin brother Polyneices. Polyneices loses the battle, but his legitimate claim subsequently is vindicated when his line triumphs once and for all over Eteocles' line.
