Antigone is motivated by fictional characters who make her proud of herself. Somehow Antigone considered herself as the goddess-who attempts to sacrifice for purpose. Plato, a renowned Greek philosopher, address things young adult read may have great impact on them. Antigone is a good example. Plato also emphasize the significant of education; he questions what if children , like Antigone,are ignorant of their reality. His philosophy also is applied to Greek as well as modern society. The most obvious example is that any program -on TV - must be rated an censored. The purpose of this is to educate and enlighten children thing that is suitable for their age. As their philosophy thinking grow , they start to adopt thing more"adult".
