... The Role of a Woman in a Man's World in "Medea" by Euripides and "Anigone" by Anouilh. Antogone plays an extremely powerfull and dominering part in the play, she shows true courage and belief. And her role in a man's world is very unusuall, she is more 'manly' than the man (Creon) in this case. Antigone here can mentaly destroy Creon, she is set to wed his son, and she is mocking him like he wasn't the king and of inferior importance. This is a very confusing confrontation for Creon and would be a extremely hard conversation to hold. When her crime is discovered, Antigone adopts a new role, that of a woman who is not only the sister of her dead brother, but also the descendant of a house that had been battered and torn at by fate who has a unique destiny to fulfill. She assumes this destiny in contrast
