Journal #12 Antigone

I think Anouilh bombards his audience with the contrast of ugly vs pretty to show how a persons beliefs of themselves are based off of others. Antigone is always told that she is pretty but she never agrees, but her sister is very pretty. This contrast could show how Antigone is true and does what she believes is right but her sister who is pretty is just a puppet that goes with the flow and does what others expect her to do. Antigone and her father shared the same ugliness and this relates to how they both know that something is wrong and don't stop until they get answers and only then they become beautiful. With this tension we are able to see what characters      share the same ideals and beliefs.
