What key information does ismene reveal in line 650 and how does creon respond? Why?
Delvig [45]

Answer:

Ismene reveals that she helped Antigona to entertain her brother. Upon hearing this, Creon states that he will condemn Antigone and Ismene to death.

Explanation:

Etéocles and Polinices are brothers and caused the death of the other in a battle. They are also brothers of Antigone and Ismene, who want the brothers to have a dignified funeral and burial. However, Creotes decrees that it is forbidden for Polinices to have a burial, or for any official funeral, but Eteocles is allowed to have a dignified burial. Antigona refuses to obey Creontes and decides that burying her Polynesic brother calls Ismene to do so, but Ismene refuses to participate.

Antigone is caught in the act, and Creon decides to call the two sisters to justify himself. At that moment, Ismene feels that she will not let her sister be punished alone and says that she helped her in the funeral of Polinices. Upon hearing this, Creon states that the two are sentenced to death.
