We have no strength to defy the State." Which archetype does Ismene best represent? the villain the heroine the warrior the coward

The answer is: the coward.

In the excerpt from "The Royal House of Thebes," Ismene is portrayed as the opposite of her sister Antigone, who is the heroine of the story.

nataly862011 [7]
