IM SO CLOSE TO PASSING PLEASE HELP!!!!

Key Ideas and Details: A martyr is someone who willingly suffers or dies rather
than give up his or her cause or beliefs. Do you think that Antigone goes to her
death as a martyr? Support your claims with textual evidence.

Answer:

Antigone knows that she will die for disobeying Creon and burying her brother, but she buries him anyway because she believes it is the right thing to do. By this definition and example, she is a martyr.
