Answer:

Creon issued a law that whoever tried to bury Polyneices would be put to death. Antigone is very upset because her one brother is graced with all the rites of a hero, while the other is disgraced. Antigone is determined to bury her brother because of her loyalty to her family and to the gods. Creon exile Oedipus from Thebes after Oedipus killed his father and married his mother. Creon also declared that Polyneices would not receive a proper burial because he committed treason against his own city. For her loyalty to her brother and to her conscience, Antigone is eventually sentenced to be immured in a cave. However, she does not wait to die but hangs herself with a noose made from her 'fine linen veil. Polyneices is the brother of Antigone, Ismene and Eteocles. Creon decides that Polyneices is a traitor to Thebes because he was fighting against the king, even though Eteocles went against their agreement. Since Eteocles was the king, he determines that he should be given a proper burial, while his brother, Polyneices, should be left unburied.

Answer: Option D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Shakespeare's treatment of the moon in show "A Midsummer Night's Dream" varies from Ovid's utilization the moon in the legend "Pyramus and Thisbe" by symbolizing characters impression of the conditions – Pyramus right off the bat thanks the Moon for his light which symbolizes his brilliant future with Thisbe.

But then he sees her clock recolored with blood and calls upon the Furies to murder him (his view on conditions changes). Then again, Ovid utilizes the moon only for the setting, there are no implications of ghastly end.
