The rising action of Antigone is Antigone's decision to defy Creon's orders and bury her brother.

<u>Explanation: </u>

Antigone is a brave warrior and fighter. She was not afraid of defying her uncle’s order and buried her brother and fulfills her responsibilities towards her brother. By burying her brothers, she proved that she is a fearless fighter and doesn’t care about any bad consequences.

She has bravely fought for her brothers and buried them with respect and care. This was the most prominent decision of her life and the turning point of her life too. We can say this was the rising action of Antigone because she rises high in herself and in people’s eyes.
