Why does Choragos suggest that the gods might have buried Polyneices?

Because there was no sign of anyone or anything that had been there.


Why does ismene object to antigones plan to bury polyneices in 'antigone'?

Ismene doesn't wasnt her sister, Antigone, to bury POlyneices because she fears for her sister's life. Creon proclaimed that whomever might bury Polyneices would be publically stoned to death.


What crime has polyneices committed in the opinion of the king?

Well in Creon's speech, he spoke about man, and that his true colors come out when he has to show his skills in law. Now I'm pretty sure that he is referencing to Polyneices here. He then spoke that if he rules by making the people fear him and doesn't speak to his people then he is a horrible ruler. He might have been speaking about Polyneices there. But, he also spoke of Polyneices more directly, saying that "he sought to burn with fire from top to bottom his native city, and the gods of his own people; who sought to taste the blood he shared with us, and lead the rest of us to slavery." Now in English, Creon didn't want Polyneices to be buried properly because he thought that he was trying to lead Thebes to crumble in war, and leave the rest of the people there to become slaves. Hope that helps:)


Antigone says the that worst death is death without honor. What might this be a reference to especially within her own family?

Well, the fact that Polyneices, her brother, didn't get a proper funeral, and that his body was corrupted, was considered honorless by Antigone and Ismene, so it's likely that she was referring to that.


How would Shakespeare's special effects man create the sound of wind?

We do not have a record of how such a sound effect might have been made, so the best we can do is to use our imaginations. I suspect that the musicians who played recorders (the use of recorders is noted in Hamlet) may have made whistling sounds with them.
