Anouilh Journal #4

Life is Like Water

Anouilh repeats "Life is Like Water" a lot when Antigone and Creon are having their argument. This repetition gives us more insight into the actualy character of Creon and shows what exactly his view on life is and how his actions are influenced by it.

Contentment

During Creon and Antigone's argument, theoretical ideas of joy/contentment are portrayed, and both have different interpretations that they follow in. This affected my view on how Antigone as a character is because she feels that happiness will not last long so it doesn't really matter that much. This also takes out the pity that was felt before for Antigone, she just takes it away for the reader.
