Abstract

In this essay I will compare for the first time the sisters Antigone and Ismene of Sophocles’ Antigone and the sisters-in-law Antigone and Argia of Alfieri’s Antigone. While the relationship between Sophocles’ two sisters has been very studied, today there is no specific study about the Antigone-Argia relationship. Also the studies on the Alfieri’s Antigone in relation to the Sophocles’ tragedy are dated. I will highlight similarities and differences between the two tragedies. I will also investigate some 19th century paintings depicting sisters and sis- ters-in-law.
