What purposes are served by the appearance of Antigone at the beginning of 'Antigone'?

To show that is Antigone is both the main female character and the protagonist and to foreshadow her suffering as the tragic hero are the purposes served by her appearance at the beginning of "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone's being the first character to be seen and to be heard in this case is symbolic of her role as the main character and as the tragic hero. That Ismene is second to be seen and to be heard is symbolic of her status as a supporting character. That the two discuss how they will respond, or not, to a challenge foreshadows the heroic Antigone's tragic fate.

What purposes are served by the appearance of Antigone and of Ismene at the end of 'Oedipus Rex'?

Witness to Oedipus as a devoted father, sympathy for the suffering of an entire family, and lack of criminal intent and immoral design are the purposes served by the appearance of Antigone and Ismene in the Exodus of "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. -- 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon begins the play as a role model of personal happiness and professional success for his people. By the end of the play, he is found to be his father's killer, his mother's husband and his children's half-brother. That his criminal acts and immoral actions are committed without intent, premeditation or prior knowledge is supported by his loving interaction with his daughters, the Princesses Antigone and Ismene.

Nothing indicates that differences are settled between Antigone and Ismene in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Ismene does not appear in the play after her explosive interaction with her sister Antigone during the latter's trial.

What is the relationship between Antigone and Ismene in 'Antigone'?

Sisters and cousins is the relationship between Antigone and Ismene in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Antigone and Ismene are the daughters of disgraced Theban monarchs Oedipus and Jocasta. Their parents both are direct descendants of Cadmus, Thebes' founder and first king, but by different grandchildren. Their parents therefore are cousins to each other as are the sisters Antigone and Ismene.
