Which summary correctly describes the second half of antigone?

It's B

Haemon tries to convince his father to think about his citizens and what they want and to realize his arrogance and folly. However, Creon dismisses him and decrees that instead of sentencing Antigone to death, he will entomb her. Antigone puts up a brave face before being entombed. The prophet Teiresias warns Creon of his folly, only to be rebuked. Later, when Creon goes to free Antigone, he finds out that she has killed herself, and he witnesses Haemon stabbing himself. This news reaches Queen Eurydice, who also stabs herself in a fit of grief. Creon returns to the palace childless and wifeless, finally realizes his hubris, and repents.

1. Frankenstein begins and ends with letters written by Robert Walton. Why do you think

that Mary Shelley chose to have him frame the novel? How would your opinions of

Victor Frankenstein and his creation differ if their story was told directly by Victor

Frankenstein himself? What if the story was told solely by the creation?

you in case of failure. Prepare to hear of occurrences which are usually deemed

marvelous.”

A. In the excerpt above, Victor is foreshadowing the creation of his monster and how

it went quickly awry. Are there any other instances of foreshadowing in these

letters?

B. In the excerpt above, the themes of knowledge and wisdom are introduced. Often,

knowledge and wisdom are seen as interchangeable, or as going hand-in-hand, but

are they necessarily the same. Pay attention to how knowledge and wisdom are

portrayed in the book.

4. Walton and Frankenstein are both men of science but in vastly different fields. What does

having two main characters in this field tell you about 1800s Europe? What does it tell

you about the gender roles of th
