Episode 14, Antigone 929-97: Genius or Gibberish?

Antigone offers one last lament before going down to her tomb to die. It’s the last thing we’ll ever hear her say. Also, as she leaves the chorus gives a bizarre ode that has left even the top commentators scratching their heads. It’s like no other choral ode we’ve seen, and some scholars have argued that it’s merely garbled filler. But maybe, just maybe, it’s the most genius ode of the entire play.
