Question

5) Please only answer if you can help me. A theme developed in Part 4 of Antigone is that people gain wisdom and respect when they admit to failure and learn from it.
Which passage from the play best develops this theme?

Answer 1

Answer:

"TEIRESIAS

All men make mistakes—that’s not uncommon.

But when they do, they’re no longer foolish

or subject to bad luck if they try to fix

the evil into which they’ve fallen,

once they give up their intransigence."
