Oedipus At Colonus Laws Of The Gods

Antigone, one might feel that there is lacking a

conversation could have taken place but was not
included by Sophocles; however, it is my belief
that if a conversation occurred between Antigone
and Haimon prior to their deaths, Sophocles would
have made it a part of hi...
