Question

1. What burdens does Antigone carry?
2. What does Antigone worry about most?
3. What has Antigone "left" behind?
4. Antigone's life up to this point?

Answer 1

Answer:

Antigone tells Creon that his moralizing speeches repel her, and that to die for having buried her brother honorably will bring her great glory. She tells him that all of Thebes supports her but fears to speak out against the king.

Answer 2

"At last," cries Antigone, and the Guards take her away. Standing behind Creon, the Chorus tells Creon that he cannot let Antigone die: we will carry the "scar of her death" for centuries. ... Creon urges Haemon to bear his sorrow; he must take up the burden of manhood.
