Freshmen:
- Review the Exodos and respond to the following questions:
- Why does Antigone choose to commit suicide?
- Creon's wife is only on stage momentarily, yet she plays a key role in Creon's disaster. What does her suicide mean to him?
- Is Creon a tragic figure? Do you feel sympathy for him at the end as someone who initially tried to do good yet was overwhelmed by circumstance, or do you believe that he is bullying, mysogynistic control freak who gets what he deserves?
- Conversely, what makes Antigone a tragic figure? Think about what, exactly, you mean by such words as "tragedy" and "tragic."
- Why is the play titled "Antigone" rather than "Creon"?
