to convey the same ideas through his play Antigone. Using Sophocles’ Antigone, I will talk about citizenship from the perspectives of 2 pivotal characters i.e. Antigone and Creon; in what ways do these two differ from each other, providing textual evidence in support of each view, and at the end I will try to define ideal citizenship, keeping in mind the play Antigone.

Treble, Trouble: There Can Be No Revolution without Song An Introduction ‘There can be no revolution without song.’ It is 1970, in Santiago.
