Question

Which character from Antigone by Sophocles is a stock character?

Answer 1

Answer:

•   Creon: He is an archetypal villain because his announcement to bury Polyneices is the catalyst for the misfortune which composes the plot of the story. A stock character is an archetypal character whose purpose is to move the story along allowing the audience to quickly understand the character.

• A tragic flaw: It´s a literary device that can be defined as a trait in a character, usually the hero, that leads him to downfall. This characteristic could be the lack of self-knowledge or judgment and, as the story here analyzed, the pride.

• Ismene refuses to help her sister bury Polyneices: Ismene decides to go against the divine authority by not defending her family´s honor, but she obeys the human authorities because she´s more afraid of what they can do to her.
