Joblessness, homelessness and friendlessness is what happens to Creon in the end of "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Creon ceases to be Theban king and royal palace resident when his non-burial law becomes a painful failure and his family and all Thebes turn against him. Additionally, he loses the respect of all Thebans, and his remaining family members commit suicide rather than than keep him company. He still lives at the end of the play, which concludes without specifying what happens other than that he is led away from the sight of his former subjects.
There are two variant versions to Creon's story, with one having him exiled and the other having him murdered while still in Thebes.
The chorus questioning the same sentence forIsmene is what happens when Creon sentences Antigone to death in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus believe Theban Princess Antigone guilty of willfully breaking her uncle King Creon's law of non-burial of the disloyal Theban dead. The members do not appear to have a problem with the death penalty that Creon enforces. But they object to punishing Antigone's sister, Princess Ismene, whom they consider completely uninvolved from beginning to end with Polyneices' unlawful burial.
Theban King Creon is mortal. So, yes, he does die. It just doesn't happen in the play 'Antigone'.

Suicide is what happens to Haemon at the end of "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Prince Haemon is engaged to his first cousin, Princess Antigone. But the engagement is broken when Haemon's father, King Creon, sentences Antigone to be buried alive. Haemon goes to rescue or join her and finds her hanging by the halter of her own dress. He unsuccessfully attempts to kill Creon and then kills himself.
Creon is Antigone's uncle.

Creon is his dad and antigone is his cousin
in my home examination there was a question like, who is the protagonist of the play, antigone or creon?i thought it ws open ended and we can choose anyone.therefore i chose antigone. but out of 10 marks i scored only 2 because the right answer was creon. creon realised his mistakes at the end and felt guilty for his action, where as antigone didn't feel any guilt. so creon is the protagonist.
Both Antigone and Creon meet tragic ends, but Antigone's is more tragic in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, an end is tragic when the outcome of a human life leads to suffering or takes an unfortunate turn. The description fits both Theban Princess Antigone and King Creon. Antigone's end is tragic because she loses her life and therefore forfeits the opportunity to marry her beloved first cousin, Prince Haemon and to have children with him. Creon's end is a bit less tragic since he still lives at the play's end even though he loses everyone and everything that gives his life meaning.
Creon's wife's name in Antigone is Eurydice.
That Creon is led away from his former subjects and inside the palace is what happens in the end of "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon is found to be in the wrong. He issues a law that contradicts divine will and Theban traditions, and it catches and trips him up. He therefore loses his family, friends, home, job and reputation.
Niece to uncle is Antigone's relationship to Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone is the eldest daughter of disgraced Theban monarchs Oedipus and Jocasta. Queen Jocasta is Creon's sister. Antigone therefore is Creon's niece.
