Philippe Nonet offers an original interpretation of Sophocles' Antigone and through it a powerful rethinking of law as eternal and unchanging, and as binding gods as well as men. Exploring the question of whether that law, which Nonet calls “Antigone's Law,” is the Antigone's law, I open the possibility that the law Sophocles stands behind is not independent of human art and activity but more at home in the ethical and political life it governs
