Antigone

As for this subject required me to analyze the play "Antigone" by Sophocles, I find the language of the play is quite easy. But the underlying meaning of the play is somehow need my effort to interpret it. Although the underlying meaning need time to interpret it, the play itself has convey some moral value of the society on it. I came to realize about the importance of human relationship and the family value that we should have in our life. Antigone's determination to bury her brother although Creon has prohibited anyone to do that, had somehow showed her loyalty to the family. Besides that, Antogone has also give me a impression that she is a brave woman who is brave enough to go against the King although she knew the punishment is death. She is also brave in the sense that she never give up to go against a man although at that setting it is the men who has the power to control women. What I would say is that, this play gives a lot of meaning to the readers.
