Sophocles' Antigone is a classic Greek tragedy that was written in 441 BC. The play tells the story of Antigone, the daughter of Oedipus, who defies the law of her uncle, King Creon, by burying her brother Polyneices. The play explores themes of duty, loyalty, and the conflict between individual conscience and state law. Antigone's decision to bury her brother sets off a chain of events that leads to tragedy and ultimately the downfall of the ruling family. Sophocles' Antigone is considered a masterpiece of ancient Greek drama and is still performed and studied today. This particular edition, published in 1906, features a translation by Sir Richard Jebb and includes an introduction and notes by the translator.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
