antigone- her name means "unbending" and it's just like her character!. She held so much pride and was stubborn (all for the sake of her brother) only to die!. She even knew her life would end and she gladly took it!. It wasn't just for her brother but her reputation too, was a stake!. She wanted to die knowing she buried her brother and when creon took her to the cave instead, she killed herself because she was unwilling (or too stubborn) to live!. This is how she planned it and she wanted it to follow through so as Creon unbent and learned, Antigone did not!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
