<span>Antigone defied King Creole's order not to bury Polynieces, her brother because it is the divine will that he be given the burial ritual.

B. Obedience to human law vs. obedience to divine law; Antigone acts in accordance with the divine law and accepts the human fate that befalls her. </span>

The correct answer is B. <em>Antigone</em> dramatizes the clash of <em>nomos</em>, human law (valid by convention) and <em>physis</em>, natural law (valid by necessity, since it is the will of the gods). Creon orders that Antigone's brother Polinices shall not be buried, going against Greek religious custom and belief, which stated that every person should be appropiately buried. Antigone, obeying divine (natural) law, buried his brother and defied Creon's decree.

The biggest goal of the samurai was to defend the master!

Explanation:

  • The samurai were obliged to comply with the Bushido code, but of course how many samurai actually adhered to that code varied considerably.
  • Bushido came under the strong influence of the philosophy of Confucianism, and promoted loyalty to his superiors, self-discipline, self-respect, and moral conduct.
  • Death is not the worst for a samurai. The scariest thing is to stay out of honor. And even then an honorable death should be chosen.
