Why is the sentry afraid to tell Creon about Polyneices' burial in 'Antigone'?
It is fear of false blame and undeserved punishment that makes the sentry afraid to tell Creon about Polyneices' burial in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the sentry is acquainted with Theban King Creon's narrow sense of right and wrong. He knows that Creon considers breaking his law wrong and punishing the offender right. He also knows that Creon may punish the bearer of bad news if there is no other person in sight to blame.
What news does the sentry bring on his first visit to Creon in 'Antigone'?
That Polyneices' body is buried and that the perpetrator is long gone is the news that the sentry brings on his first visit to Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon denies to his perceived enemies their god-given rights as Thebans to below ground burials. He enforces his prohibition by a royal edict. He has guards posted immediately after making the edict public. But a sentry lets Creon know that his edict already is violated and that Creon's disgraced nephew Polyneices' body already is covered with a dusty layer that constitutes a partial burial.
What news is the Sentry reluctant to deliver to Creon in 'Antigone'?
That the body of Polyneices is covered with dust is the news that the Sentry is reluctant to deliver to Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the Sentry guards the exposed bodies of the disloyal Theban dead. He is ordered to do so because of Theban King Creon's edict of non-burial of Theban traitors. Many oppose the edict, which denies to Polyneices and his Theban supporters the god-given rights of all Thebans to below ground burials and proper funeral rites. The Sentry reels with fear at the thought of his sovereign's reaction to the civil disobedience.
Who does Creon think is responsible?
Creon thinks that the sentry is been resposible for burying the body.
What can be inferred about Creon's personality from his reaction to the sentry's first report in 'Antigone'?
That he is decisive but opinionated,results-oriented and stubborn is what can be inferred about Creon's personality from his reaction to the sentry's first report in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon demonstrates decisiveness and a results orientation when he demands that his law be enforced and that Polyneices' body be unburied. He exhibits opinions when he jumps to conclusions as to the identities of the perpetrators. He manifests stubbornness when he refuses to budge from a single position that he takes.
