What do I know about the 1940's and how i will affect Antigone

well, the 1940 was a time of WWII. This is the biggest influence that I can think of that will affect Anouilh's Anitgone seeing how Anouilh was French and how the French were hit very hard by the war. This can affect the roles of heroes and villans and also affect how war is portrayed. Also another big thing is the role of Women. Since WWII made everyone think differently about women, the main character (Antigone) can go through some serious changes from the Sophocles version
