One of the most beautiful and thrilling ancient tragedies is Sophocles' "Antigone." The theme of the tragedy is the conflict between Antigone - the daughter of Oedipus - and the king of Thebes and her uncle, Creon. From this conflict, which kept the spectators in suspense and emotion as they watched it on the stage of open theaters, many terrible dramas follow. But, to better understand the tragedy of "Antigone," it is necessary to go much further back. We need to refer to two more tragedies, "Oedipus Rex," which is also a work of Sophocles, and "Seven Against Thebes," by the ancient great tragedian, Aeschylus. To grasp the beginning of the Theban myth, which is one of the most beautiful and fascinating of our ancient ancestors.
