I did the Antigone question and the 'Do they deserve their downfall?' question
Basically said:
Yes, because they fulfilled all the concepts of the tragic hero as per Aristotle, went against the will of the Gods etc
Drew parallels between Creon and Hippolytus in going against/insulting the gods will/gods personally and women in general
Contrasted it with:
Parallels between Antigone and Oedipus, they attempted to do what was right but ultimately brought about their downfall
Oedipus' parents were possibly to blame not him and the Athenian audience would have been sympathetic due to the plague at the time, etc
Medea didn't really get punished, Dionysian play akin to Nietzsche's theory, etc
Back to my argument:
Antigone was also hubristic and herself ironically seemed to go against the gods by stubbornly showing herself despite the whirlwind and insulting Creon personally as she was hell-bent on martyrdom and 'glory'
Oedipus was hubristic, and killed his Laius so was a murderer
Medea was the granddaughter of the sun god so isn't a normal mortal so can possibly be excused, and she assisted Aegeus and planned to redeem herself with offerings to the gods
