He also is the father of Antigone's husband-to-be, her first cousin Prince Haemon. Additionally, he is Antigone's sovereign.
Haemon and Creon are both characters in Antigone by Sophocles. Haemon visits his father, Creon, to tell him not to kill Antigone.
he is antigone's soon to be husband and the son of Creon and he tries to convince his father not to kill antigone
Creon threatens that he will kill Antigone before his son. This is particularly threatening because Creon's son has a passionate love (eros) for Antigone and they were going to get married.
Theban King Creon is mortal. So, yes, he does die. It just doesn't happen in the play 'Antigone'.
No, Haemon is not a loyal son to Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Prince Haemon starts out trying to be loyal to his father, King Creon. But Creon plans to execute Princess Antigone, Haemon's first cousin and betrothed. Haemon passionately loves Antigone and finds the execution unacceptable. He therefore expresses disloyalty by opposing his father's non-burial edict, supporting Antigone's civil disobedience and even trying to kill Creon.
He said he did'nt want to be king. :)
How is Creon in conflict with Antigone
Sentence her to death is what Creon does to Antigone in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone deliberately breaks a royal edict recently issued by King Creon, her uncle and intended father-in-law. Creon tends to have a negative attitude towards women in general and towards Antigone in particular. Nevertheless, Antigone does nothing to try to get Creon to pardon her or give her a sentence other than death.
