There are a few themes there. First theme is between a person and the society. Antigone wants to bury him even though the representative of the society, which is the King, forbade it. She does it anyway and shows how an individual fought the system which she believed was wrong and corrupt.

Another theme is the divine law versus common law. Creon represents society and the law of the people while she was burying Polyneices according to Greek tradition based on their religious beliefs. She sticks to divine law over local law because she believes that Creon is wrong.

The one who walks away from omelas summary
Ksivusya [100]

One child is chosen from the population to serve as a sacrifice that will allow the rest of the city to live in peace and plenty. The child is placed in a small, windowless room without any amenities and is completely cut off from the rest of society except for the short visits from those who come to view the child. When they learn of the child’s existence, the people of Omelas battle with the knowledge of The child, who suffers for them, and the guilt they feel as a result of their knowledge. However, most of them eventually overcome their guilt. They live fully, celebrate life, and work to achieve beauty and greatness in an effort to justify the sacrifice of The child. They are no longer capable of true happiness after they learn about The child, but they are capable of contentment. There are some people who leave the city. Some leave when they first learn of the child’s existence and some leave after a long battle with their guilt. But they all leave on solitary journeys as they make their way through the city and the surrounding fields and out into the unknown. These people disappear and never return. Their fate and their paths are unknown

Is it true demonstrating the abilities of the researcher should not be an objctive of research
Alla [95]

Answer:

False :

Values help to show what should be researched, rather than preventing researchers from being rigorous in their research. By being honest and open about their values, actively disclosing them as part of their publications, they enable readers to take this 'qualified objectivity' into account in evaluating findings.
