    Antigone Essay Pride is a powerful emotion‚ it can lead us to be people we are not‚ and lead us to be hurt. The act of being prideful comes from the power we are given through society‚ to say we are something others cannot say they are. Its also what makes everyone who they are‚ but too much pride can seize control of us causing an uproar of karma to surge our way. In Antigone‚ the blind prophet‚ Tiresias warns Creon that‚ “A corpse for a corpse the price‚ and flesh for flesh‚ one of your own

    1. “But now that they have gone‚ sharing their double end on a single day” (Creon) This quote was important because this was the basis for the drama of Antigone. This quote was from Creon referring to Polyneices. He was saying that since Polyneices went against Thebes‚ that Polyneices will not get buried. If this piece of the book was not said‚ this drama would not be a drama. 2. “Curse you! Find the love for your outlet down there. No women while I live shall govern me.” (Creon) This quote

    national strength‚ strength controls over other authority. Power isn’t necessarily a bad thing‚ it is only a bad thing when it is abused‚ and that is when the problem begins‚ abuse of power really reminds me of hitler’s plan to kill all the Jews and in antigone when Creon abuses his power of being king. During the 20th century‚ the Germans faced a terrible economic depression during that time the people had began to lose their trust with the government‚ which resulted into people thinking that Hitler

    Reflection: Antigone As faith becomes more scarce in society‚ people willing to die loyal to their beliefs are few‚ so to witness communities willing to do so in the immense love and respect they have for their religion truly refreshes the soul. Hence‚ when Sophocles‚ in his work‚ Antigone‚ represented Antigone as a faithful sister willing to die for her brother‚ he wanted people to follow in her footsteps in order to learn how to learn to love unconditionally. This outlook of sacrificing life for

    Embedded Assessment #2 “That may be‚ but Hades still desires equal rites for both.”(593) I say Antigone contracts Creon the most because she brings out his anger‚ pride‚ and disgust. I say this because other than the Chorus she interacted with the most and brought most of his poor traits out. Antigone brings out his pride because when she buried her brother’s body‚ Creon told the Chorus leader after she did her speech that‚ “But you should know the most obdurate wills are those most prone to break
