What is the purpose of the choral ode that follows Antigone's final exit in 'Antigone'?
An observation on the inevitability of fate is the purpose of the choral ode that follows Antigone's final exit in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus gives examples of three mortals who suffer. One example recounts persecution that is followed by triumph and vengeance. The other two examples relate to less fortunate meetings with Dionysos the wine god and with fate. The ode therefore summarizes that Antigone's suffering fits in with the fate of a god-cursed line.

What four themes are revealed by the chorus in 'Antigone'?
Curses, fate, flaws and punishment are four themes revealed by the chorus in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus of Theban elders devote the parados and the first ode to the human flaw of pride and recklessness. They discuss the divine curses on Theban Princess Antigone's father Oedipus and great-grandfather King Labdacus in the second ode. They mention fate in the third ode. They refer to punishment throughout all of the odes.
What is the third ode about in 'Antigone'?
Love is what the third ode is about in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the third ode begins at the end of the conversation between Theban King Creon and his son Prince Haemon. It ends just before Princess Antigone, the object of Haemon's love and of Creon's hate, processes to her live burial in a remote cave outside Thebes. It identifies love as the cause of a mortal's greatest feelings of glory and worst feelings of rivalry as well as the assistant in the workings of divine will and prophesied fates.
What is Ode Two of 'Antigone'?
The parados isn't an ode. The first ode therefore begins with 'Wonders are many, and none is more wonderful than man...'. The second ode begins with 'Blest are they whose days have not tasted of evil'. It takes up a total of eight paragraphs. It ends with 'But lo, Haemon, the last of thy sons; comes he grieving for the doom, of his promised bride, Antigone, and bitter for the baffled hope of his marriage?' In the second ode, the chorus discusses the staying nature and power of curses. They cite the specific example of the cursed house of the Labdacidae from which Antigone descends through her father, King Oedipus. They explain that the curse levels three of the King's four children: Antigone, Eteocles, and Polyneices. The implication is the application of the curse to the remaining child, Ismene. For the chorus warns that human error always is met with divine punishment, divine retribution.
What part in Antigone is Dionysos mentioned?
Dionysus, or Iacchus, is mentioned in the Paean, a hymn that appeals to the gods for assistance, as well as in Ode 4.
What is the purpose of the choral ode following the scene of Creon's edict in 'Antigone'?
A reminder of obedience to the gods is the purpose of the choral ode following Creon's edict in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the ode criticizes Polyneices for attacking Thebes in defense of his legitimate royal claims. The chorus describes Polyneices as offending Zeus with supposedly proud boasts and deeds. The members observe that no disobedience or disrespect goes unpunished by the gods.
What is the meaning of the second ode in 'Antigone'?
That mortals can be defeated by death and by divine wrathis the meaning of the second ode in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the chorus begins with praises for human achievements and domination over nature and wildlife. But the members caution about two challenges to mortal powers. One is death, from which there is no escape. Another is foolishness in regard to divine and royal laws.
What does the fourth ode mean in 'Antigone'?
That fate rules is the what the fourth ode means in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the fourth ode describes the adventures of highly born mortals with fate. In two of three examples, Lycurgus and the brothers Pandion and Plexippus respectively end up dead or mutilated by the mysterious workings of fate. It is only Danaë, the mother of the hero Perseus and the founder of the ancient Roman town of Ardea, who survives isolation and murderous attempts by her father, Argive King Acrisios.
