Is Antigone stubborn?

In: Antigone, Oedipus Rex [Edit categories]

Answer:

Yes, Antigone is stubborn. She's adamant, demanding, inflexible, and uncompromising in her convictions. She's as passionate in the talk as in the walk. The problem is that the way in which she packages her opinions is equally adamant, demanding, inflexible, and uncompromising. Her stubborn insistence upon the rightness of her stance brooks no discussion that could lead to compromise or negotiation.
