What to do when two authorities contradict each other is the main idea of "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone is confronted with a situation of authority figures in conflict. One represents the rule of the state in the form of her uncle King Creon's edict of non-burial of the disloyal Theban dead. The other stands for the will of the gods in the form of divinely sanctioned rights of all Thebans to below ground burials.
Haimon's main concern is that he be with antigone and that his father would let them be. Creon main concern is that haimon and antigone does not get married.
One of the main topics in Antigone were 'Disillusionment' and 'Different shades of happiness".
That she is the main character is the reason why Antigone is the protagonist in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the protagonist is the main character around whom the play's action revolves. The protagonist is heroic in doing good deeds. This describes Antigone, who is both the main character and the principal female character. She does good deeds, because she respects her family, the gods and Theban traditions.
That she numbers among the play's cast of characters and that her life comes to an unfortunate end is the reason why Antigone can be considered a tragic character in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Antigone is a main character who influences and is affected by the interactions among the other main characters. Great changes can be expected of her as Princess of Thebes, and yet her life is cut short, suddenly and cruelly. What she does therefore defines her as a main character and what happens to her therefore defines Antigone as tragic.

The title of the play 'Antigone' has significance as the name of the main character and as the reference to what the main character does. The name 'Antigone' means someone who fights against someone or something. That precisely is what the main character does. Antigone fights against what she perceives as a temporary, manmade law that violates the enduring, god-given laws by which Thebans live their lives and make ready for their deaths.
That her actions affect all other actions is the reason why Antigone is the main character in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the dramatist identifies his main character by honoring her name in the play's title. He also indicates that Theban Princess Antigone is the main character by having all action be affected and determined by what she does. For example, King Creon issues the royal edict that his niece decides to disobey. But she steps forward as the only protester. All actions trace back to her protest.

That she does great deeds, has great powers and is the main character are reasons why Antigone is the hero in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone does the great deed of burying her brother Polyneices. She has great powers of faith in her gods, love for her family and loyalty to her people and their most cherished traditions. She is the main character who affects the course of events and around whom all action centers.
The main speaker in the play 'Antigone' may be considered as the character who has the most words to speak. That person appears to be Theban King Creon. For he dominates every action in the play, by his direct presence or by direct references to him by the main characters.
No, Ismene is not the protagonist in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Ismene is one of the main characters since she has a name and interacts with the other main characters. But the protagonist is the main character around whom the play's action revolves. That description fits Ismene's sister, Theban Princess Antigone.
It is in the burying of Polyneices that the main conflict is revealed in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the main conflict deals with which authority to identify as the ultimate over human lives. The choice is between the divine authority of the gods and the royal authority of Theban kings. Antigone selects the gods, which puts her into conflict with King Creon.
