Sophocles primarily develops the element of hubris D) through Creon, when he tries to control matters that only the gods have the right to govern.
Hubris is a concept that makes reference to a personality characterized by extreme pride and arrogance, which most times also leads to a defiance or disobedience against the gods. In Antigone by Sophocles, Creon, who is the king of Thebes, is unwilling to listen to what others have to say. He goes against divine law when he forbids all the citizens to bury Polyneices. After he condemns Antigone to death for burying her brother, he refuses to listen to his own son, who tries to convince him not to kill Antigone. In that way, his pride and his arrogance not only lead to Antigone's death, but also to the deaths of his son and the queen.
