What relationship is revealed in the scene between Antigone and Creon in 'Antigone'?

It is the relationship of niece to uncle that is revealed in the scene between Antigone and Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon calls Princess Antigone his closest living blood relative. He describes her as his sister's child. But it is not until Ismene, Antigone's sister and Creon's niece, shows up that Antigone also is identified as Creon's intended daughter-in-law engaged to his only surviving son and heir apparent, Prince Haemon.


Does Creon return from Delphi before being accused by Oedipus?

Yes, Theban King Creon returns from consulting with the Oracle at Apollo's Shrine before being accused by Theban King Oedipus. Creon comes back with the news that the killer or killers of the royal predecessor, Theban King Laius, must be identified and punished with death or exile. No one gives any helpful information by which Oedipus can track down the perpetrator or perpetrators.Oedipus therefore calls upon Teiresias the blind prophet. But Teiresias finally says that Oedipus himself is the killer who's being sought. This is such a shock that Oedipus assumes that Creon and Teiresias are conspiring to overthrow him by framing him for murder. The irony lies in the fact that what Teiresias says is true.


What does Oedipus accuse Creon of and why?

Theban King Oedipus accuses Theban King Creon of trying to overthrow him. The reason lies in what Creon and Teiresias the blind prophet previously tell him. Creon says that Thebes is suffering from a pestilence that only go away with the identification and punishment by execution or exile of the killer or killers of Theban King Laius. Then Teiresias identifies Oedipus as the killer. Oedipus doesn't know that Teiresias is correct in his identification. So he thinks that he's being framed.


Why did Teiresias stated to Creon that you are a king because of me?

In Oedipus Rex, Teiresias was the one who found out Oedipus's secret of him being the actual killer of his father, and him actually marrying his mother, so in a way, Teresias is responsible for giving Creon his position in ruling, which is why Creon is in debt to Teresias as he said in Antigone, Scene 5.
