Creon, Antigone’s uncle shows that he has too much hubris. He becomes king of Thebes and allows the power to go to his head. He allows his pride to blind him, Antigone is known as the hero of the play, she shows hubris in a smart way by not being afraid to speak out and show her opinion. Antigone takes pride in her beliefs and this is also a way of showing hubris. Pride can be used as a strength or weakness. Due to Creon's pride he is no longer king and his family, friends and loved ones are dead. In the play the chorus says about her “you have a made your choice, the death is the doing of your conscious hand.” Harmon makes Creon look like a fool he also validates Antigone cause
