Do you find any irony in the fact that Ezekiel cheever is the one who arrests elizabeth proctor?

Yes, because John Proctor and Elizabeth thought about going to him to tell him about the truth that what the girls are doing is a fraud, and Elizabeth says Cheever knows him well. There is irony there because they trust him and thought good of him.

What are the ironies in The Crucible?

All of the accused faced the following irony: if you confess to being a witch, you live. If you don't, you die. That seems backwards; if you are a witch, shouldn't you die, and if not, live?In order to prove his wife's innocence in court John Proctor had to confess his sin of adultery. That sin would be expected to fall under the arena of his own salvation, not that of his wife's, but to discredit Abigail, he must reveal their sin together.Elizabeth's lie covering up that adultery is also ironic, because John swears that she "cannot lie". But then she does (understandably).All Abby wants is to be with John, and it is her actions that in the end lead to his death.Cheever, who Elizabeth prompted John to talk to, because they were friends, ends up being the one who arrests her.Goody Putnam, who openly confessed to enlising Tituba to "conjure spirits" receives no trial, no arrest, no accusation of witchcraft, but walks free.


What examples show that Creon is growing irrational and abusing his powers in 'Antigone'?

That he arrests and plans to punish Ismene is an example of Creon growing irrational and abusing his powers in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon admits that his niece, Princess Ismene, has a lifelong track record of wisdom. Yet he arrests her for helping her sister Antigone bury their brother Polyneices. He bases the arrest on Ismene looking uncharacteristically distraught, undoubtedly over her sister's actions instead of her own. Creon manages to recover his senses long enough to release Ismene when the chorus leader indicates that no one else believes Ismene guilty.


Who curses Creon in 'Antigone'?

Antigone and Eurydice curse Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon issues a non-burial law, exposes his nephew Polyneices' body to ravaging weather and scrounging wildlife, breaks his son Prince Haemon's engagement to Princess Antigone, whom he arrests and sentences to death. For all of the preceding reasons, Antigone curses Creon with the same amount of evil. This curse is augmented by that of Queen Eurydice, Creon's wife and Antigone's intended mother-in-law. Eurydice blames Creon for the earlier deaths of their other children and for the recent suicides of Antigone and Haemon.
