Antigone (The Oedipus Plays) Sophocles


# of Words: 161

Antigone selects up at the same (uber-dismal) location that Oedipus in Colonus leaves away. Oedipus has just passed away from Colonus, and Antigone and her husband choose to return to Thebes with the intention of assisting their brothers, Eteocles and Polyneices, avoid a prophecy that predicts they will kill each other in a struggle for the throne of Thebes.



But upon her arrival in Thebes, Antigone finds that the two of her brothers are dead. Antigone defies the legislation, buries her brother, and can be captured. When Creon locks away her in prison, she kills herself.

Meanwhile, perhaps not realizing Antigone has taken her own life, the blind prophet Teiresias, Creon's son and Antigone's fiancé Haemon, along with the Chorus plead with Creon to release her. Creon eventually relents, but at a case of too-late-timing, finds her dead in her prison cell. From grief, Haemon and Creon's spouse have by now murdered themselves, and Creon is left at misery and sorrow.
