The analysis of the work tragedy of Antigona
Sophocles tells the story of Antigone Valerosa who disobeys the arrogant and exaggerated King of Thebes, who prohibits not burialing polynices, antigone breaking the order, throws a handful of land on the remains of his brother, as a sample of family honor andRespect for religious value. her courage leads Antigone to her misfortune ending with her life. Is it that Creon has consequences for his attitude by pronouncing an unjust law?
Antigone is a work and Greek tragedy, he says that she returns to Thebes after the death of Eteocles and polynices are killed eachAves of prey and dogs, who breached the law would be dead;The Greek tradition establishes the burial to the dead, because if not their soul would wander and could not access the kingdom of the shadows. Ismene submissive to the order, Antigone disobeys the prohibition of his uncle Creon for love of his brother and in the name of the ‘unwritten and immutable laws of the gods’, antigone condemned is buried alive in a cave for his disobedience puts an end to hislife hanging. His beloved Hemon, son of Creon, is killed on the body of Antigona and Creon’s wife, also committed suicide by pain, thus justifying the consequence of the work of Creon.
In this work there is a confrontation of human rights, on the one hand, I believe that it is characterized by its arrogance and exaggeration for compliance with the laws of Thebes and loses to its inhuman way of acting giving rise to its sad end and antigone characterized by theReligious value, respect and love for his family, he doesn’t mind dying because he doesn’t seem fair.
He shows in this work the love and honor towards the family that Antigona has, the importance for her to fulfill the divine laws and although she knows that this will lead her to death, as she manifests in her verses "I will bury her. Beautiful will be to die doing it, I will lie with him whom I love and love me "," I will not suffer anything so serious that it does not allow me to die with honor ".
Analyzing this work has interpretive points in religious, moral, and society aspects, its language is understandable, it is easy to read, poetics, the work is short, I would recommend it because it is good to know the myth and tragedy in the Greek world.
