Creon wants Oedipus back because he want to use Oedipus as a talisman to save the people of Thebes from any curse..... boateng Qwasi
Antigone and Eurydice curse Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon issues a non-burial law, exposes his nephew Polyneices' body to ravaging weather and scrounging wildlife, breaks his son Prince Haemon's engagement to Princess Antigone, whom he arrests and sentences to death. For all of the preceding reasons, Antigone curses Creon with the same amount of evil. This curse is augmented by that of Queen Eurydice, Creon's wife and Antigone's intended mother-in-law. Eurydice blames Creon for the earlier deaths of their other children and for the recent suicides of Antigone and Haemon.
That it is a part of the curse on her family is the reason why Antigone thinks that Creon issues his decree in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone discusses with her sister Princess Ismene the divine curse that makes life so miserable for the children of disgraced Theban King Oedipus. She does not mention that her uncle King Creon rules as a usurper of the royal powers of the now deceased twin brothers Eteocles and Polyneices. So a curse may be at work but so is Creon's attempt to consolidate his rule and discredit the true heir's son and supporters.
He will have them put to death
