What was Othello's Venice like?
Venice at the time in which the play was set was a tiny city-state ruled by a republican government and led by a series of incredibly elderly and astute leaders called the Doge. Despite the fact that it was a city built on a bunch of islands in a swamp and connected by canals, it was a great maritime power, and its colonial interests in what is now Greece brought it into conflict with the expanding Ottoman empire. Hence the conflict with "the Turk" over Cyprus. Venice at the time was wealthy, sophisticated and cosmopolitan.
What is the struggle between Antigone and Creon over the notion of ruling and being ruled by oneself in 'Antigone'?
That the one thinks that mortals all answer to the gods and that the other thinks that the king is answerable to no one is the struggle between Antigone and Creon over the notion of ruling and being ruled by oneself in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone accepts the gods as the ultimate authority in life and death. In contrast, her uncle King Creon considers himself the ultimate authority over Thebes. He is correct in considering himself the gods' earthly representative in Thebes. But he is incorrect in thinking that makes him answerable to no one but himself.
