Isishwankathelo seAntigone
I-Antigone yintombi ka-Oedipus kunye noJocasta, udade ka-Ismene, iPolyneices kunye ne-Eteocles. Wayekunye noyise, xa wayeyimfama waya eColono. Sicebisa UDon Álvaro okanye amandla elishwa
UCreon, ukumkani waseThebes, wanikela imiyalelo yokuba izidumbu zabazalwana bakhe zingangcwatywa. Eli bhinqa liselula alizange liwuthobele lo myalelo, kangangokuba lafumana isohlwayo sokungcwatywa. Wakhetha ukufa.
Intlekele yamaGrike kaSophocles
Isishwankathelo se-Antigone ngumsebenzi osekelwe kwintsomi yaseAntigone, emva kokuba uKumkani u-Oedipus wagxothwa kwisixeko saseThebes xa efumanisa ngokulala kwakhe kunye nokubulawa kwezihlobo zakhe.
Emva koko, unyana wakhe omncinci ogama linguEteocles, uthi ubukumkani bubobakhe kuphela, wathabatha ithuba lokuthumela umntakwabo ogama linguPolyneices elubhacweni. Kamva iPolyneices, yahlasela iThebes ikunye nomkhosi omkhulu, nangona kunjalo, akukho namnye woonyana owaphumelela ngenxa yokuba bazibulala ngexesha lomlo.
Ekubeni uCreon, umntakwabo Jocasta, ukumkani omtsha waseThebes, uvakalisa ukuba uEteocles, owayengukumkani waseThebes, unyana ka-Oedipus noJocasta, umzalwana wasePolyneices, wangcwatywa nawo onke amawonga egorha, ngoxa umzimba wawungenabomi. yasePolyneices yaphoswa kwindawo esecaleni ukuze kubole kwaye kuqweqwediswe izinja, isohlwayo sokuzama ukungcwaba isidumbu kukufa.
Ngale ndlela iziganeko zazidlula, iimpembelelo ezinomsindo ze-Antigone ukwenzela ukuba isidumbu somntakwabo singcwatywe, ukuze umoya wakhe uphumle ngoxolo, wacinezela nangona isiluleko esinengqiqo ukuba u-Ismene, udadewabo omncinci, unetyala kuye.
U-Antigone unquma ukuya kwindawo yokhuphiswano phambi kwesixeko saseThebes, ngokukhawuleza emva koko uphonsa isanti kumzimba ongenabomi womntakwabo uPolyneices kunye nezithethe zomngcwabo. I-Antigone ivumela ukuba abanjwe emva kokuphuma kwindawo apho wayefihlwe khona, xa abalindi abathile beza kucoca uthuli oluchithekileyo, ngelixa iqhawe lika-Antigone lamhambisa phambi kweCreon.
UCreon, emangaliswe yindlela yokuziphatha yowesifazane ongazange athobele imiyalelo yakhe, ugunyazisa u-Antigone ukuba avalelwe kunye nodadewabo u-Ismene, njengeqabane, kwaye ngoko nangoko uyalele ukubulawa kwabo.
Kodwa ke unyana kaCreon, ogama linguHemon, uyangenelela ukuze uAntigone akhululwe ekubeni eganelwe ukutshata naye nangona uyise onekratshi emenzela isidima, akayithatheli ngqalelo intlungu yakhe.
Kodwa, uHemon, unyana kaCreon noEurydice, enomsindo uyabaleka, uziva ebuhlungu yaye egculelwa yindlela uyise amphatha ngayo.
Kodwa uCreon ngokukhawuleza uguqula ingqondo yakhe, echaza ukuba uya kubulala kuphela i-Antigone, kuba u-Iseme umjonga njengomsulwa, ngelixa udadewabo efuduswa ephuma kwisixeko saseThebes, ukuba angcwatywe emqolombeni kwaye abulawe yindlala.
Ngelixa uAntigone etyhubela oku kubandezeleka, uTiresias, igqirha eliyimfama elivela kwisixeko saseThebes, lilumkisa uCreon ukuba oothixo bacaphuke kakhulu, ngenxa yokuba akazange avumele iiPolyneices ukuba zingcwatywe, kunye nokuba izinja kunye neentaka ezitya inyama yenyama. isidumbu, kamva sisetyenziselwa amadini.
Oku kuzisa njengesiphumo okanye njengesohlwayo sokuba unyana kaCreon afe ngokukhawuleza, umprofeti uTiresias amxela kwangaphambili. UCreon uhlekisa ngalo mprofeti, engavumi ukucebisa, esithi uTiresia ufuna ukumoyikisa. Kodwa, ekugqibeleni, uyavuma ukuba wayingcwaba le ndoda ibuleweyo emva kokuba iKwayala yamalungu kaTheban imkhumbuze ukuba umprofeti uTiresia akazange enze impazamo kwizibhengezo zakhe.
Ekhathazwa ngunyana wakhe, uCreon uya kucoca umzimba ongaphiliyo wePolyneices, kwaye uqala ukwenza amasiko omngcwabo, apho atshisa khona iintsalela zomzimba. Ngokukhawuleza ushiya ukukhulula i-Antigone, emqolombeni apho wayevalelwe khona, kodwa kusemva kwexesha kakhulu ukukhusela intlekele: ubulawa ngokuzixhoma ngentambo, iHemon ikhala ngokukrakra phantsi komzimba wayo.
Ke, emva kokurhoxa eCreon, uHemon uqhubeka nokuhlaba umzimba wakhe, aze afe ebambe umzimba obandayo ka-Antigone, ongenabomi. UCreon, u-disconsolate, ubuyela kwibhotwe, apho efumanisa ukuba umfazi wakhe u-Euridice uzibulele, emva kokuva ngokufa konyana wakhe.
UCreon watshintshelwa ngabemi bakhe kwindawo ekude, apho wakhala kwaye unqwenela ukukhululwa kwiintlungu ezinokuthi zithobe kuphela kukufa.
