Antigone is the protagonist because she moves action throughout the story. It is also critical to elucidate the confusion that may arise in this scenario as there is another character, Creon who poses more as a protagonist. Creon has more time on stage and undergoes a critical arc as a character – events that convince evaluators. Among the critical acts in a hero or a heroine are the Aristotle’s ideas of peripeteia together with anagnorisis and Creon experiences both (Racine, 2015). Creon undergoes the reversal of prosperity, peripeteia during his downfall. Creon regrets of having passed the law and observes it as the bad idea as well.
Antigone sets the tragedy moving because she buries Polyneices in spite of Creon’s strict decree. Considering her suicide, the fiancé Haemon to stab himself, an event that cause’s Creon’s wife Eurydice to commit suttee. Again, it appears automatically that the audience should sympathize with Antigone in the end instead of Creon (Racine, 2015). Moreover, the king also concurs with her.
