and I've been studying 2NK - the kinsmen in question being nephews of Creon, King of Thebes.
In fact the play opens with 3 queens begging Theseus and Hippolita for help because Creon has killed their husbands in battle and will not let the bodies be buried.
The last few weeks have been marked by the ubiquity of King Creon.
and I always want to write I song about him to the tune of 'King Creole' but I never get round to it!
