Civil disobedience is when a citizen decides not to obey the laws, demands, orders or commands given by the government, a corporation or other authority. In this case the authority is Creon. I do believe that Antigone did engage in civil disobedience because she decided to not obey or follow what Creon said. Shen instead insisted on giving polynices a proper burial and ended up doing it, knowing that Creon didnā€™t agree with it. That is considered a civil disobedience because she was receiving orders directly from Creon and she didnā€™t follow them. Whether it was right or not, itā€™s different.
