Extended post on the “Moral Conflict part”
Minimum 1 1/2 pages. Maximum 2 pages
“Antigone” by Sophocles.
Work up an extended POST on “Moral
Conflict.”
Background and Plot: Explain the background for the play. What is the
history of Oedipus and his family? Who are Eteocles and Polyneices? Why did
they fight each other? What is Creon’s edict and why did he decree it? What
happens during the course of the play?
Moral Conflict: The German philosopher Hegel stated that
the Antigone represents the tragic collision of right against right, with both
sides equally justified. Do you agree with this interpretation? Why or why not?
Describe the moral positions of Antigone and Creon and point to the scenes and
dialogues which reveal them. Does Sophocles take a stand in favor of either
side? How? What vision of life, morality, and the gods’ relationship with men
emerges from this play?
