Some hours later, Creon in the palace was startled by a shout, "Against your orders Polyneices has been buried." He hurried out

to be confronted with the guards he had set on the dead body and with Antigone. "This girl buried him," they cried. "We saw her. A thick dust-storm gave her chance. When it cleared, the body had been buried and the girl was making an offering to the dead." "You knew my edict?" Creon asked. "Yes," Antigone replied. "And you transgressed the law?" "Your law, but not the law of Justice who dwells with the gods," Antigone said. 'The unwritten laws of heaven are not of today nor yesterday, but from all time." Ismene weeping came from the palace to stand with her sister. "I helped do it," she said. But Antigone would not have that. "She had no share in it," she told Creon. And she bade her sister say no more. "Your choice was to live," she said, "mine to die." As she was led away to death, she spoke to the bystanders:— . . . Behold me, what I suffer Because I have upheld that which is high. – “The Royal House of Thebes,” Edith Hamilton What evidence supports the idea that Antigone represents a tragic heroine? Check all that apply. She is similar to Ismene. She is cast out from society. She bravely defends her values. She loves and cares for her father. She breaks rules in the name of good. She sacrifices herself to right a wrong.

Answer:

The evidence that supports the idea that Antigone represents a tragic heroine is:

* She lives by her own moral code.

* She sacrifices herself for her values.

* She is forced to make a difficult decision.

Explanation:

Antigone has always been the opposite of her sister Ismene and is always represented and a tomboy girl like many female heroes in history, She showed her personality since she was a child when she didn't want to follow the rules and limits that were set upon her for being a girl and besides she likes to be far from the feminine perfection of Ismene, she also fights for her ideals even when that means to sacrifice important personal things or connections.

Ulleksa [173]
"Exploding a moment" is a term which refers to the use of imagery (strong, descriptive language which creates vivid images in the reader's mind) in order to make the reader actually see or feel what is being described in the text. Having this in mind, the correct answer is the third sentence - His silk tie gleams in the sunlight.

I need to combine the sentences with the describing information after the word timpain
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Timpani, the large drums featured in orchestras, originated more than 2000 years ago in ancient empires.

Explanation:

This is one way to add the description after the noun. It's called an "appositive phrase"  Timpani=drums So there are two nouns in a row that refer to the same thing.

Another way:

Timpani, which are large drums featured in orchestras, originated more than 2000 years ago in ancient empires.

That's a relative clause. It substitutes the relative pronoun, 'which' for timpani, and keeps the verb, 'are.'
