The Story, Antigone, which was written by a man named Sophocles, is a classic Greek tragedy about a woman, named Antigone, who gets sentenced to death for attempting to bury her dead brother. The king of Thebes, Creon, ordered the brother of Antigone, Polyneices, to not be buried, because he had forsaken his home of Thebes, and had fought against Thebes in a battle. Instead of a burial, Polyneices would be left to rot where he fell in battle.
