Antigone Trial

November 6, 2015

I think the trial went well today. The only thing that I had a problem with was that i wish the objective of the trial had been made clear prior to the preparation days. Myself being on the prosecution prepared to try and prove Antigone guilty of burying Polynices, and I feel as though Erik and I actually did this quite well. However, the defense was prepared to accept Antigone's guilt and simply try and justify it, and they did a good job of doing this. So I say that next time this project is done, make sure everyone one is on the same page as to what exactly is being argued. and maybe also we could do something that is not rigged next time as well haha.

Antigone Quote and Question Part 2:


"I say all prophets seek their own advantage" (154)


Does King Creon's stubbornness affect the outcome of the later events? Had he not questioned the prophet, would his son and wife have lived?

A Quote From Antigone

"You shall not die with me. You shall not claim that which you would not touch. One death is enough." (141)






Although it makes sense that Antigone would not accept Ismene's assistance, why is it, do you think, that she would not accept the help purely for the support for her brother?

ENFJ

My most frequent test result of my recently passed Myers Briggs test was ENFJ

Extravert (34%) iNtuitive (38%) Feeling (6%) and Judging (6%)


This personality type is nicknamed "The Giver"


"Many ENFJs have tremendous power to manipulate others with their phenomenal interpersonal skills and unique salesmanship. But it's usually not meant as manipulation"

• I can feel myself often trying to "sell" people on things and find great joy in persuading them even though I really do not mean to be manipulating them

"Some can juggle an amazing number of responsibilities or projects simultaneously"

• I am very comfortable having many tasks on my plate at one time. Where others begin to stress out due to over exertion I am able to press on and accomplish all of my responsibilities.

"Face-to-face relationships are intense, personable and warm, though they may be so infrequently achieved that intimate friendships are rare"

• I definitely enjoy these "personable" relationships. I really like to get up close and personal with others, sometimes to a point of distaste as I recognize I don't have much of a personal "bubble". However I do observe that while I may have many surface level friends with whom I enjoy spending my time I really only do have two or three really deep and intimate friendships.

"ENFJs are continually looking for newer and better solutions to benefit their extensive family, staff, or organization"

• I am always searching for a more efficient way to get things done. If it is possible to complete a task faster with equal or greater quality I will pick that option 10/10 times. I do this for myself but I also try and come up with new ways to help those around me.

 "ENFJs can manage details, particularly those necessary to implement the prevailing vision"

• I consider myself to have an excellent memory, however especially when I care about the topic at hand. If I have a "prevailing vision" I will almost certainly remember everything that needs to get done, even the smallest of jobs.

"Introverted Thinking is least apparent and most enigmatic in this type. In fact, it often appears only when summoned by Feeling. At times only in jest, but in earnest if need be, Thinking entertains as logical only those conclusions which support Feeling's values"

• I do mostly use feeling when making decisions, however once I have a decision at hand, I do think about it, just, based on my feelings. I can and do think logically, but deep down I always seem to go with my gut instinct of what "feels" right.
