Characters: Major: Antigone – Antigone is very (immovable) and (unwilling) because when she is told not to do something by king Creon she still does what she believes in. For example, “What Creon says is irrelevant. He is my brother. I will bury him.” Creon – Creon is very (stubborn) and (foolish) because when everyone tells him to release Antigone and bury her brother Polynicies he does not and it leads him to be alone. For example, “I’m not the man to sit quietly by and watch my country sliding towards the precipice of ruin nor can I be friend to my country’s foe” Minor: Chorus – the chorus is very (wise) and (all knowing) because they warned Creon of what was going to happen but he did not listen. For example, “It is a wise saying, that when God is set against you, You welcome the path to ruin,-but not for long.” Ismene – Ismene is very (cautious) (serving) because she does not want to help Antigone in the beginning break the law and is very serving because she still wanted to take part of the blame of what Antigone did. For example, “You antigone, creon, because, very, example, book, life, ismene, herself, hameon, bury, brother, body, tone, title, polynicies, one, wise, whole, theme, tells, symbol, suicide, suggestion, serving, man, left, law, king, kills, hanged, going, foolish, father, family
