What should happen when individual actions and beliefs don't line up with a particular society's definitions of acceptable and unacceptable behavior is a question that connects the play 'Antigone' to the real world. The play indeed pits the behavioral preferences and spiritual beliefs of Antigone against the behavioral preferences and legal action of her Uncle Creon, King of Thebes. In the real world of nowadays, that question may be asked by women in Muslim countries. Their role typically is more on the order of the unquestioning and obedient Ismene, and less on the order of the conscientious and passionate Antigone.

Are there real life 'Antigone' stories?

Yes, actual equivalents of the play 'Antigone' may be found in real life. In any place and at any time that individuals hold fast to their beliefs, the equivalents of Antigone may be found. All changes and all challenges to the inhumanity of government or of a majority to an individual or a minority come about because of individuals such as Antigone who come to the assistance of those who face injustice and can't defend themselves. For example, in the play, Antigone defends the disloyal Theban dead. They don't stop being Theban or being loved with death. But in death they rely on the living to make sure that they receive the proper preparation for proper reception into the underworld realm of the dead.


What is the time frame of the play Antigone?

The time frame of the play "Antigone" by Sophocles is set in ancient Thebes, shortly after the events of the Theban civil war. The action unfolds over a brief period, primarily within a single day, as Antigone confronts King Creon regarding the burial of her brother Polyneices. The immediate events and emotional turmoil are presented in real-time, emphasizing the urgency of Antigone's moral dilemma and the consequences of her choices.
