Antigone #2

Chorus has gone from factual to straight-up philosophical (word).  He is introducing a view (perhaps the author's) on tragedy in a way that encourages the audience to adopt the same view.  He takes things people can relate to, like ordering a cup of coffee, to help people understand tragedy a little better.  I feel like in this scene, Chorus is a lot more personal with the audience than in his first long speech.  He uses words like "you" so that members of the audience can put themselves into the situations he is describing and better understand the subject of his monologue, which is tragedy.  By saying "you" so much, the author might be going as far as to say that eveybody's lives have little elements of tragedy in them that are much like the events Chorus describes to the audience.
