subvert (Creon seems to be the judge of Antigone's life or death, but in reality his/Haemon's/Eurydice's fate is controlled by Antigone, who decides to hang herself)
subvert (instead of men/Fusako (upper class woman/breadwinner) holding power, it is Noboru -- he is protected by the penal code)
-
both Antigone and Creon are impulsive, prideful, volatile and tempestuous -- they are both willing to be cruel to their loved ones to achieve their desired ends
-
-
In Antigone, love is presented as a catalyst for characters' self-destruction and also the eventual death of others -- Antigone's love for and perceived duty to bury her brother causes not only her suicide, but also the deaths of Haemon and Eurydice.
