In Scene 2 of "Antigone," the chorus warns about the consequences of pride and defiance against the gods. They emphasize that human arrogance can lead to downfall and suffering, illustrating the tension between individual will and divine law. The chorus also reflects on the inevitability of fate, suggesting that those who challenge moral and societal norms may ultimately face dire repercussions. This serves as a cautionary reminder of the limits of human power in the face of higher authority.

What does the author want us to understand about the 'yes' and 'no' between Antigone and Creon in 'Antigone'?

That the two share the same character flaws even though they express opposite convictions is what the author wants us to understand about the "yes" and "no" between Antigone and Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone believes that family, the gods and Theban traditions rule in life and death. In contrast, her uncle King Creon insists that the king, the law and the state rule in life and can carry over their effects into death. Despite their contrary convictions, the two unite in their characters flawed by pride, stubbornness and tunnel vision.
