«Antigone» is the Greek tragedy by Sophokles, published by Philipp Reclam, Jun Verlag GmbH in paperback (64 pages, in German).
Antigone, daughter of Oedipus and Jocasta, defies the prohibition of Creon, king of Thebes, and claims her brother's right to be buried. The drama contrasts divine law and human law, and raises the clash between individual conscience and state authority.
The original Greek title is Ἀντιγόνη. Antigone appears as the third instalment of the series «The Theban Plays».
It is useful for students of classical literature and for those seeking a brief edition of Greek theatre.
