Antigone
I was recently reading antigone at school, and my teacher got mad at me. I simply stated that the author himseld was infact a politician, and would therefore hide fear of ruling underneath too much pride. It got intresting when I too told the teacher that when a new king is ruling, it would make more sense that they would be afraid of whats going on, and of any resistance of the government, for that would appear to make the king look weak to surrounding kings and make them think that they could take over. Am I wrong to think this? Or am I just thinking about it too hard?
