Sisterly Bonds
Antigone and Ismene
Loyalty
Antigone and her Brothers
Antigone and the
Gods
Antigone and Ismene share a very close
sisterly bond by which Anitgone trusts
Ismene to help her bury the body,
however Ismene does not agree to her
ideas
Ismene loves Antigone
beyond words can describe
however she is more afraid of
the price of rebellion than her
sister's love
Though they may have been close in the
beginning, Ismene cuts their bonds by not
agreeing to bury the body with Antigone
Their opposing opinions forms a
solid wall between these two that
neither of them are willing to break
down
Even though they are
uncle and niece they
treat each other as King
and traitor
As the family has
angered the gods for
generations on end, all
of them are destined to
be seperated
Their seperation causes all family
members to bear the pain although
none of them really do much to change
it
Power
Gods
Creon vs
Antigone
Creon
Antigone is willing
to risk her own life
to honour her
brother
She rebels against Creon
and law in deep respect
for her brother
Antigone believes the gods wish
both Polynices and Eteocles to be
buried in equal honour
She believes the gods hold greater
power than Creon and so respect them
much more so than Creon, a mortal
being
As king of Athens and Thebes,
Creon holds the greater
majority of power
Creon uses this power
with good intentions
however his decisions
seem to always lead
to the minor effect
As Creon is king and Antigone
a princess, they are both of
extremely high status
Both their statuses grant them the ability to cause
the most change within Thebes and as they are the
ultimate opposing forces, they throw the kingdom
out of balance
In all greek theatre, the gods hold the utmost power as
they are of the highest status, being the great unwritten,
unshakable traditions
Their immotality grants them power
over all and have the most respect from
others
This especially effects Antigone as she holds absolute
respect for them and her respect causes her to solely
oppose Creon
