The first play

Antigone, is the first play that i learned in EDU 3217. It was fascinating as this play introduce me what is life about and how it circle us. It is a tragis when Antigone has to sacrifice herself in order to create a self awareness towards their family. However, Creon is the antagonist in this play has turn the whole sacrrifise that antigone made into a disaster when he doesn't believe her. And this has turn back to him as he realise at the end of the play that he has been blinded with his proudness as a king. And as for Antigone, she has been sentenced to death. For the consequence, Creon's son has follow antigone by killing himself to prove that antigone is not guilty.As the result, it is late for Creon to realise that she is not guilty. He then killed himself when all of his family is turn over him. It is tragic when peole cannot learn from the past. From what I can tell, one should look back to learn but not to be pesimistic from the past.
