# Loeb Antigone prints civic embargo of a corpse as a visible pressure-tool

Date: 1912

## The fact

The burial-ban in English is also a school text of how a city squeezes an enemy’s memory. Improving path as making such pressure speakable — low/medium confidence — not a claim that he drafted a UN sanctions regime.

## Context

Twin of humanitarian ban-harm.

[Sophocles](/people/sophocles) is not the sole author of every later object, law, or museum label that uses the name. Shared work with courts, excavators, printers, spouses, officials, and later states does not erase a documented role, and it does not make an ancient person the signer of a twentieth-century statute.

## Evidence and sources

Official library, festival, encyclopedia, or edition pages and an independent publisher independently describe this instrument.

Official or archival record: Perseus — Sophocles, Antigone (https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus:text:1999.01.0186; Perseus Digital Library / Tufts).

## Significance

Printed corpse-embargo is not an OFAC list.

## What is established and what is not

Established as a dated public record of this instrument.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.
Later competitions, monuments, translations, UNESCO listings, and museums are not converted into extra lifetime acts. The attached driver is [sanctions-pressure](/drivers/sanctions-pressure). The welfare reading used in this dossier is improving. That reading is an impact-path choice, not a property stored on the Fact itself. Confidence is stated on the impact path. A later English edition is not a recovered autograph. If a number is not in the two records named above, it is not supplied here.
