Creon’s tragic flaw is that he is to prideful. Creon insists on killing Antigone because she disobeyed his decree. When Haimon questions his decision, Creon replies by saying,” I’ll have no dealing with law breakers” (792, 35-36). Creon is explaining to Haimon that he will not deal with any rule breakers and that Antigone will be put to die along with her traitor of a brother. Creon’s pride is what leads to the death of Haimon, his son, and the Queen, his wife.

Iago is using old methods to make Othello believe he had, by himself, the first thought that Desdemona and Cassio were having an affair, Act III Scene 3 Othello “Was not that Cassio parted from my wife?” Iago “Cassio, my lord?...
