The Greeks believed that no man could be considered happy before his death, since the happiest life could be destroyed in an instant. Sophocles states this outright both in <em>Oedipus Rex</em> and <em>Antigone</em>: both Oedipus and Creon begin as wealthy, proud men who rule over the city, but they end up ruined and defeated. The element of tragedy that is mos apparent is the belief in the frailty of human life, the vulnerability of even the greatest individuales to the whims of both fate and the gods, what George Steiner termed "absolute tragedy".

What is the key scene in the story THE HIVE
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

The key scene in the story “The Hive” displays reality unflinchingly. In the very first scene of the book, there is a mob gathering and Cassie goes to join it. The scene displays how cruel Hive justice can be, as the target had done something wrong, but the way people were treating him was unfair, with the hashtag #monsternotaman trending and the punishment that was delivered. From this very first scene, Cassie questions Hive justice, and even before she is sentenced by it herself she wonders about whether it really is a good way to punish people for their online actions.
