Hedda Gabler

Meer over het boek

Hedda Tesman, formerly Hedda Gabler, embodies the conflict between her aristocratic heritage and her role as a wife. Recently returned from her honeymoon to her villa in Kristiania, she grapples with her identity and societal expectations. Ibsen emphasizes her connection to her father's legacy over her husband's influence, highlighting themes of autonomy and the constraints of marriage. As Hedda navigates her new life, her struggle for self-definition becomes central to the narrative.
