Question: Question about Socrates and Three Theban Plays!?
If Socrates (not Sophocles) was offering a defense for Antigone or Creon, who would he defend as the antagonist and why!?

(Who would he consider the wrong one be!? And what would he say to defend them!?)Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
He would explain that Creon is human, and that he can not be expected to make rational decisions!.

He would also use one of his crazy barnyard examples because he has to talk in a way that makes sense to the common people!.
