Pied Beauty

Already, from these prominent identical traits it is evident that Hemingway modeled the character of Santiago after his own person.

Antigone
Number of words: 788 - Number of pages: 3.... is any higher authority. Haemon, Creon's son and Creon's advisor, Tiresias both fail to redeem Creon of his pride.
Haemon fails to change his father's mind for many different reasons. Even before Haemon presented himself as weak and inferior to his father, "Far be it from me -I haven't the shill, and certainly no desire, to tell you when, if ever, you make a slip in speech… though someone else might have a good suggestion."(766-69) Haemon uses words like if, might, and suggestion; which give the impression that he cannot stand if own ground or stand up for wha .....
