This question is for the play Antigone:

From reading it, I think the answer is D. But on some websites people are saying C. Which is correct??
I can't give you the answers. When the chorus describes the events that led to Antigone's death, all her family, and ascribes it all to Fate, which of these answers best fits the chorus' words in Ode 4?
As for Ode 2, what does Antigone say of herself? "The last ______ of Oedipus' line..."
Also,
In the last few lines of Ode 4, the Chorus places responsibility for Antigone's death on
a. Niobe
b. Creon
c. the family curse
d. Antigone
I read Ode 4 and could not figure out which one of these was the answer. On some websites, people are saying it is C. Could someone please explain how it is C?
In Ode 2 of the play Antigone, the chorus compares Antigone to being like a "glowing ember." So, the correct answer is C.
To determine the correct answer to this question, let's first take a look at Ode 2 in the play "Antigone." The chorus in this ode is known for using metaphorical language to describe Antigone. To find the answer, we need to identify the specific comparison made by the chorus.
To locate Ode 2, you can refer to the text of "Antigone." If you have a physical copy of the play, you can flip through the pages to find the correct section. If you are using an online version, you can search for the specific ode or use the table of contents to locate it.
Once you have found Ode 2, read through it carefully and look for any comparisons being made about Antigone. Pay close attention to the descriptions and metaphors used by the chorus.
In this case, the question provides four options: a cresting wave, a soaring bird, a glowing ember, and a closed flower. When reading Ode 2, focus on finding a comparison that matches one of these options.
After understanding the content of Ode 2, assess each option to see if it aligns with the chorus' metaphorical description of Antigone. Look for textual evidence or specific lines that support the comparison.
By closely analyzing the text and the descriptions provided in Ode 2, you should be able to deduce the correct comparison made by the chorus for Antigone. It's important to rely on the original text of the play rather than relying solely on other interpretations found online.
