Yes, Antigone thinks her decision through in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).

Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone has her defense all ready for her conversations with her sister, Princess Ismene, and with their uncle, King Creon. Her interactions with her relatives in fact function as no more than one-way communications because she has no interest in another opinion. She anticipates the consequences of illegally burying her brother Polyneices and those of not doing so: capital punishment and welcome in the Underworld of the afterlife versus continued problems with Creon's reign and shunning in the afterlife.

How does Haimon feel about Antigone?

Haemon is Antigone's betrothed, and loves her. In spite of his father Creon's contempt and opposition of Antigone, he supports her decision to bury her brother Polyneices and is aware of the situation in Thebes: the citizens also support Antigone's decision, although they are too terrified to betray their emotions to King Creon. He even attempts to defend Antigone to Creon, but is ignored. In the end, Haemon's love for Antigone is what causes him to commit suicide after finding her dead body.


What is Antigone's decision in 'Antigone'?

That she will bury her brother is Antigone's decision in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone sets in motion a series of decisions when she decides that she will bury her brother Polyneices.

What do the people of Thebes think about Creon's decision about Antigone in 'Antigone'?

Indirect or silent opposition is what Thebans think about Creon's decision about Antigone in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone and Prince Haemon characterize Thebans as fearful of currently reigning King Creon. They describe Thebans as in depressed, frightened, silent opposition to Creon's edict of non-burial of the disloyal Theban dead. Ironically, Creon recognizes that opposition exists since he is quick to say that enemies oppose him and what he does in Thebes. He says that the opposition is indirect in that his enemies hire financially needy people to do deeds that challenge community security and governmental stability.

How do the people of Thebes feel about Creon's decision about Antigone in 'Antigone'?

Admiration for her and opposition to him are the ways that the people of Thebes feel about Creon's decision about Antigone in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban King Creon decides to sentence his niece, Princess Antigone, to death for burying her brother Polyneices. He does not care or know how much the people of Thebes take sides in the matter of the edict of non-burial of the disloyal Theban dead. He has no idea that his people fear and silently oppose him and admire and silent support his niece.
