How does Antigone take on the role or traits of a man? Why does she do this?

English

6 0

Answer:

Antigone takes on a masculine role in history when she decides to act according to her own thoughts, refusing her sister's advice and refusing to obey the king's order.

Explanation:

Traditionally, women in Greek stories have not been so independent and proactive. This is because women used to be submissive and respectful of rules, always obeying the advice that other women had to give and accepting the circumstances that were imposed on them. The most rebellious behaviors were directed at male characters who tend to act according to their own convictions.

However, Antigone decided to adopt this more rebellious behavior, in the name of the welfare of her brother's soul. For when he receives orders that his brother should not be buried and when receiving advice not to disobey the orders, Antígona decides to act according to what she believes and to bury her brother as she wants.

Which indefinite pronoun is always singular? <br> some <br> all <br> neither <br> several
ICE Princess25 [194]

The indefinite pronoun neither is always singular.


Neither is the negative counterpart of 'either' which is also singular. The basic principle of Subject-Verb Agreement says that the subject and verb must agree with each other, so you should use a singular verb because 'either' and 'neither' are considered singular; however, this principle is sometimes broken by a plural verb which can be used after 'either' and 'neither' informally.
