1)  Describe Creon's character and the way he is portrayed in the story.  What kind of leader does he sounds like at the onset of the play?  What would you consider his flaws?  How do you know these are his flaws?

     I think Creon is the type who thinks that every decision he makes and everything he says is correct. He's very arrogant. Also that he's the type of person who takes advantage of his position because of the way he demands people to do things. For example, when he told Sentry to find the "man" who stoled the dead body even though this character didn't get to see who was the person who did it, he told Creon of this but he said if Sentry didn't take action he was going to kill him. The other males too. Everyone seem to be afraid of this big leader and he also know this, but he still sticks to keep on being demanding of his requirements and also his thoughts. The sort of leader Creon sounds to be like at the beginning of the play is the one who enforces the law and as well obeys it himself. I think that one of his flaws is thinking and depending on that his son Haemon, will be a great leader as well as him. I can tell in the way Creon speaks to his son and the things he says to him " never disobey my decisions ".
