Journal #12: Antigone

Anouilh creates a tension between truth and lie. Particularly when Creon admits the truth about Polynices and Eteocles, the tension between Antigone and Creon increases. When Antigone finds out that Creon may have buried Polynices, Antigone second guesses her actions. Maybe it was not worth dying for. She doesn't trust Creon anymore because he lied to her and the entire city.
