That her sister and Creon's son are deeply in love is what Ismene argues to try to convince Creon not to kill her in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Ismene does not want to see her sister, Princess Antigone, die. She identifies the great love between Antigone and Prince Haemon, Creon's sole surviving child and heir. She mentions this in the hope that the engagement and impending marriage of the two first cousins will convince her uncle not to execute Antigone.

What rational argument does Creon use to convince Oedipus that he has no designs on the throne of Thebes in 'Oedipus Rex'?
That he already has things as he likes them is the rational argument that Creon uses to convince Oedipus that he has no designs on the throne of Thebes in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Creon identifies King Oedipus, his brother-in-law and royal colleague, as the ultimate powerholder in Thebes. He says that he has no desire to change the situation. The way things currently are, Creon states that he gets everything that he needs and wants without the stresses of being responsible and making decisions.
What does Jocasta convince Oedipus to do to Creon in 'Oedipus Rex'?
There is nothing that Jocasta convinces Oedipus to do to Creon in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus leader advises Creon and his brother-in-law Theban King Oedipus that they need to end their quarrel. He cautions that Queen Jocasta, Creon's sister and Oedipus' wife, will do it for them. But in fact, Jocasta contributes nothing to the quarrel's resolution. Instead, it is the chorus leader who manages to get Oedipus to back down from executing his brother-in-law.

What role does the Choragus play in 'Antigone'?
The roles of representative, intermediary, entertainer, and commentator are what the Choragus plays in 'Antigone'. The Choragus in fact is the Leader of the Chorus of Theban elders. He thereby represents the wise men of Thebes. He likewise is the intermediary between the audience and the characters, and between the characters and the chorus. As with the rest of the chorus, he's an entertainer through the dancing and singing that takes place in the choral odes. Throughout the play he also is responsible for a running, summary commentary for the benefit of the audience and the other characters.
What did Creon do?
Creon's crime is his violation of divine laws.
