antigone   is a play by the 5th century bc greek tragedy writer, sophocles, "   in the play, antigone's uncle, creon, has inherited the throne of thebes.   antigone's brothers,  eteocles and polyneices, are dead.   creon had issued an edict prohibiting a proper burial for polyneices, because he was seen by creon as a traitor. creon was justified under the law in issuing the edict which deprived polyneices of funeral rites. polyneices had died committing a treasonous act, so creon, as head of the state, could impose such a punishment.  

antigone, however, ignored her uncle's law, acted according to conscience, and buried her brother.   she saw it as a divine calling to give her brother a proper burial.   no private obligation was more sacred to the greeks than honoring one's family in death.   so she felt she had both conscience and divine authority on her side.

antigone was caught, and creon then declared that she be buried alive.   that's when the gods sent a message through tiresias, saying that it was creon's fault that the city was sick with plague. the gods were with him.   the gods' authority informed conscience and was higher than human law.
