Antigone was one of the daughters of Oedipus, that tragic
figure of male power who had been cursed by Gods for
mistakenly killing his father and subsequently marrying
his mother and assuming the throne of Thebes. After
the death of Oedipus civil war broke out and a battle
was waged in front of the seventh gate of Thebes-his
two sons led opposing factions and at the height of the
battle fought and killed each other. Oedipus brother,
Creon, uncle of Antigone, was now undisputed master
of the city.

Creon resolved to make an example of the
brother who had fought against him, Polynices, by
refusing the right of honourable burial. The penalty of
death was promulgated against any who should defy
this order.
Antigone was distraught. Polynices had been left
unburied, unwept, a feast of flesh for keen eyed carrion
birds. Antigone asks her sister Ismene, for it was a
challenge to her royal blood. “Now it is time to show
weather or not you are worthy of your royal blood. Is he
not my brother and yours ? Whether you like it or not ? I
shall never desert him-never !” But Ismene responds,
“How could you dare - when Creon has expressly
forbidden it ? Antigone, we are women, it is not for us to
fight against men”. With a touch of bitterness, Antigone
releases her sister from the obligation to help her, but
argues she cannot shrug off the burden. “If I die for it
what happiness! Live, if you will live, and defy the holiest
of laws of heaven.”
What is the main theme of the story of Antigone ?

  • One must be truthful and honest

  • There is a conflict between the laws of men and heavenly laws

  • One must be true to one’s kins

  • One must be true to one’s kins
