It's not as crazy as you think. By now, most of you know Donald Trump, the notorious host of TV show, The Apprentice and one of the world's top real estate tycoons. For those of you who haven't heard, Donald Trump is running for president (and you need to pay better attention to what's happening)! Trump has been the center of the media's attention lately, spewing controversial quote after controversial quote.
Antigone is an Ancient Greek tragedy by Sophocles written in or before 441 BC. Chronologically, it is the third of the three Theban plays but was written first. The title character, Antigone, is the daughter of Oedipus, King of Thebes.
As he tells Antigone, his only interest is in political and social order. Creon is bound to ideas of good sense, simplicity, and the banal happiness of everyday life. Read an in-depth analysis of Creon. Ismene-Blonde, full-figured, and radiantly beautiful, the laughing, talkative Ismene is the good girl of the family. She is reasonable and understands her place, bowing to Creon's edict and attempting to dissuade Antigone from her act of rebellion. As in Sophocles' play, she is Antigone's foil.
