Creon has pity and fear-
In retrospect, Creon causes a larger feeling of pity or fear toward himself, than toward Antigone.Creon is more relatable to a feeling of pity and fear since he is afraid of his own feelings and hides his empathy towards others by being overly demanding and controlling. In the beginning of the book Creon's presents himself as overly controlling. It says on page 68 how he wont be controlled by the people and there belief to save Antigone from a slow painful death. He tries to strike fear into peoples eyes to keep them afraid of him. Then at the end of the book he is overcome with remorse and a feeling of sadness. This is because Antigone commits suicide, then her husband and Creon's son sees her died and kills himself also. In addition, his wife decides to kill herself. Thus he has no more loved ones in his life. This is why Creon greatly resembles pity and fear.
