Answer:

I think its A.

Step-by-step explanation:

A well-established theme in Antigone is the right of the individual to reject society's infringement on her freedom to perform a personal obligation, obvious in Antigone's refusal to let Creon dictate what she is allowed to do with her family members. She says to Ismene about Creon's edict, "He has no right to keep me from my own." Related to this theme is the question of whether Antigone's will to bury her brother is based on rational thought or instinct.
