Arrogance, fear, pride and uncontrolled emotions are the tragic flaws in the characters of "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, arrogance causes Theban Princess Antigone to believe that she can honor the gods by obeying their law but dishonor them by disrespecting their earthly representative, the equally arrogant King Creon. Fear leads Princess Ismene not to help her sister Antigone give their brother Polyneices' body the below ground burial that he deserves and is his right. Pride and uncontrolled emotions motivate Antigone, Creon and Prince Haemon to such a degree that they ruin every opportunity for reconciliation.
Presenting a situation in which two authority figures conflict is the purpose of Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.) in writing "Antigone."Specifically, divine law guarantees all Thebans of below ground burials. But a recent royal edict lets those rights be respected for Theban loyalists and denied to Theban traitors. Theban Princess Antigone must decide whether to honor or dishonor divine or royal authority since her brother Polyneices is given a traitor's non-burial.
That their father leaves a legacy of dishonor, pain, rumor and shame is the information that Antigone gives about Oedipus to Ismene at the beginning of "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone gives unspecified information about disgraced King Oedipus. Antigone indicates that she and her sister Ismene have experience with woe. She traces it back to unnamed problems in her father's life.
That the gods rule is the significance of the end of "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus ends with a comment on the foolishness of disrespecting the gods. It is a situation to be avoided at all costs when divine and royal authorities collide and divine and royal laws conflict. The gods leave no disobedience, dishonor or disrespect unpunished.
That he believes that a disloyal Theban is not a Theban at all is the reason why Creon passes a law regarding the disposal of human remains in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. -- 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon decides to dishonor divine will and Theban traditions. He chooses to treat Thebans the way the enemy dead is treated: no to below ground burial, yes to above ground exposure to weather and wildlife. He believes that disloyal Thebans cease to be Thebans and must be treated as enemies in life and death.
