Antagonistic best characterizes Antigone's attitude towards Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone's name identifies her as an antagonist, which she certainly is to King Creon, her uncle and intended father-in-law.

Antigone is the protagonist and Creon the antagonist in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the protagonist is the main character, the holder of great powers and the doer of great deeds. This description fits Theban Princess Antigone, around whom the play's action centers because of her great deed of burying her brother and her great powers of defending divine will. In contrast, the antagonist is the main villain, who does no great deed and holds no great power. The description fits Creon, who defies divine will and cherished Theban traditions and cares not a bit about making all Thebes suffer for his paranoid fear of being overthrown.The protagonist is Antigone, the antagonist is Creon.
