windows
ok so i was doing my motif paper and i came across a really interesting quote. well, interesting to me anyway. im doing my paper on books, and if i hadnt already been halfway done, i would have changed the motif to windows. people are constantly looking out windows, which i didnt really notice the first time through, but in the act 4 setting description hedda gazes longing out the glass window. earlier, when lovborg first enters, she is "at the glass door, drumming on the pane"(260). Lovborg also does something impatient at the window i think, but looking back i cant find the quote. anyway i was thinking this shows desperation, feeling trapped, need for escape.

ohhh I agree completely. Like how Hedda looks out of the windown in the last scene description and such and she feels trapped throughout the whole play and wants more power.. good catch claire.
