Write a persuasive essay on whether the Holocaust should be taught in public schools.

Thou a father's guilt dost bear.

Explanation:

This is the line that best expresses the idea that Antigone is helpless with regard to her fate and her family's past. In these lines, Antigone reflects on the difficulty of her situation. We learn how alone she is, and what a struggle it is to act according to the ideas that motivate her. No one pities her and no one is helping her. The Chorus explains this by referring to Antigone's boldness and rash decisions. However, it also argues that Antigone's burden is one that she has to carry because she is the daughter of her father, and she carries his guilt.
