(1828-1906)
"The dramatic character, Hedda, is not determined merely by
the social restrictions imposed upon the female at the end of the nineteenth
century as that world is represented by the social dynamics of the play; the character
is also configured by the social dynamics of Ibsen's basic sexual paradigm, a
sexual paradigm that voices the male-dominated sexual ideology of Ibsen's
moment in history mediated through the idiosyncrasies of his own psyche".
