What does thou beslubbering fat kidneyed vassel mean?
It is an example (not a direct quotation) of a Shakespearean insult, complete with a misspelling of the term vassel(vassal, an underling or person of lesser social status).Beslubbering is roughly equal to slobbering or drooling, either a comment on one's poor table manners, or implying they are mentally deficient.Fat-kidneyed is just an anatomical reference, where oversized kidneys represent some sort of overindulgence, dietary excess, or overconsumption of alcoholVassel (vassal) was a feudal position lower than a lord, suggesting that the person is not highborn.
Was Antigone highborn?
Yes, Antigone is highborn. She's the niece of Theban King Creon, and his future daughter-in-law through her engagement to the King's only surviving child, her first cousin and fiance Haemon. She also is the sister of the immediately preceding monarchs, the twins Eteocles and Polyneices. Additionally, she's the daughter of Theban King Oedipus and Queen Jocasta. In fact, she's the descendant through the lines of both parents from Cadmus, the founder of Thebes, by way of his son Polydorus. On her father's side, she's the granddaughter of Theban King Laius, the great granddaughter of Theban King Labdacus, and the great great granddaughter of Theban King Polydorus. Antigone is her mother's daughter and granddaughter. Through her mother, she's the great granddaughter of Menoeceus, the great great granddaughter of Pentheus, and the great great great granddaughter of Polydorus. Theban King Cadmus is the son of King Agenor of Tyre in Phoenicia and Queen Telephassa. On his father's side, Cadmus is the grandson of the sea god Poseidon and his wife Libya; and the great grandson of Cronus and Rhea. On his mother's side, he's the grandson of Nilus; and the great grandson of Oceanus and Tethys. Through both his father's and his mother's lines, Cadmus is the great great grandson of Uranus and Gaia. And so Antigone is very highborn. For she descends from royalty, and from the gods.
