What are the consequences of brothers and sister constantly fighting?

Antigone story.. I Need help do you think my essay is good.? Any thing i should add?

  • Dear Creon, My two brothers Eteocles and Polynices agreed that each would take the throne from one year to the next. As you know Eteocles didn’t want to give it up. Polinices and other princes marched on Thebes. From my knowledge everyone was killed and that made you king .Antigone knew that our brother was dead but she made a bad mistake burring her own brother. But for you , wanting to kill her is not ok. That's my sister and I love her. Would you seriously kill your own family, you would have the heart to do that? We loved to uncle Creon, why would you want to make that horrid decision . I still remember that day, Antigone took me out where we could hear in private. "what’s that matter ?trouble clearly... You sound so dark so grim" (Sophocles 60). So many bad events are happening to me. My dad, gouged his eyes out with his own hands, and now you wanting to kill my sister? I'm not going to have anybody left it you kill my sister, if you kill my sister I will kill myself. I can't live with knowing you killed my sister. Why can't you just keep our own secret and let Antigone go, that was our brother. Would you want to see your own brother rot to death and all theres left is bone ? We Didn't want to see our brother do that. We buried for our own right. I love my sister to death and I don't want anything to happen to her. " I will share the guilt, the consequences too" ( Sophocles 86) . I need an older sister to grow up with, tell each other our problems, I don't want to grow up alone. We wanted Polyneices to live the underworld life, but in order to do that he had to be properly burry him and we did so now we are going to get punished for that. Wait Creon, did you know that Haemon is engaged to marry Antigone.Creon, I hope you can forgive me for the way that my sister Antigone, tried to disobey your rules, I know her actions are forbidden and for that I’m sorry. I have trying to become as strong as I can but all this stress is making me more irate and angry. The whole entire city of Thebes is mad at you because they already now what you want to do to my sister, and they also know about the consequences but they love Antigone so much that they still don't agree to what you want to do. I should call Teiresias and ask him what he thinks we should do with this problem. I bet he wouldn’t agree with the descion you are wanting to make with my sister. I don’t know what to do anymore im tired of everything “ I don’t even care anymore about everything in life and cutt of from you” (Sophocles 87). Why don’t you just kill me with her Creon.? I also have another question to ask, why did you burie Eteocles in honor, and left Polynices to die and rot in pain? What ever you do to Antigone might as well do the same to be that’s not right for one to be punished and not the other.

  • Answer:

    Your essay was quite good. I saw some spelling errors but even I can't spell everything correct half the time. I feel that some of your essay was a little jumbled and questioned some facts in the book like antigones Engagement with Haemon. I would also like to point out that Creon does try tosome extent to help Antigone but cannot allow her to stir his image. Some other things that would have made it better in my opinon and my friend sookies is that you bring up the irony of his wifes death and how he fears for what punishment the gods are with holding from him. I really liked your eassy and loved how it didn't consist of "bad Creon, BAD!" Like mine did in high school. Good luck.
