Antigone Question

The sentry brings Antigone to Creon because he witnessed her re-applying dirt onto her brothers dead body. The death penalty, I think, is unfit for such a "crime", as they call it, because she is just respecting her brothers corpse. she defends herself by not denying what she has done and by taking responsibility for her actions.

    Moira, i agree with you 100%. Antigone did not deny her crime because she knew it was the right thing to do. I also agree with you about the death penalty for her so called "crime". She was just burying her brother out of respect for him that no one will give him. Great post!:)

    Moira I also agree. Antigone did not deny her actions and she stood up for what she believed in.
