Presentation transcript:

How is the theme of loyalty shown in Antigone? Be sure to use evidence from the text to support your response. The theme of loyalty is shown in Antigone when ______________. Follow with RELEVANT text evidence. (Did a character say something that revealed the theme? If so, who? What did he/she say?) Connect the quote you provided with your response. (HOW does the quote provided show the theme? Explain rather than paraphrase) Why is this theme of loyalty important? (For this question, think about why the author might explore this theme in different ways)

Remember... Use the 4 I's and the "Object Game" questions to help you answer the open ended/short answer items. Idea: What is "it?" (Your answer) Insert: What does "it" look like in the text? (Direct quote/evidence) Interpret: What does this quote/evidence show us as readers? Insight: Why is "it" important? (Look back at your topic...connect to "it")

The theme of loyalty is shown in Antigone when Antigone chooses to break the law set by Creon and decides to bury her brother. Although Polyneices is considered a traitor, she tells her sister Ismene, "But I will bury him; and if I must die, I say that this crime is holy." Antigone's loyalty to her beloved brother is stronger than her fear of punishment. Loyalty to her family, specifically to her brother, was more important than the law. So now YOU try!

How is the theme of loyalty shown in Antigone? Be sure to use evidence from the text to support your response. Plan first, then construct your response. loyalty is named as a theme, so where did I see an example of loyalty in the play? what quote/line from the play told ME that loyalty was a theme? I need to explain HOW this quote/line showed that a theme was loyalty why is loyalty an important theme to write about?
