I don't know if I mean sterotype or the archatypical young wife. She is like Hope(Young Goodman Brown's wife) and the wife of the birthmark lady. She is a victim of her naivity. She acts all tough and stuff but in the end she ends up under someone's thumb and unloved. She had George and she completely ignored him and treated him like crap and I think he finally realized that and threw her unto Judge Brack. He[George] realized that she was CRAZY beyond all reason. She was a bit too into Lovborg's sucide for his liking and so he turned his love unto the woman who had the more acceptable response to the news.(It is kinda jerky that he just dissed her like that but she was not a good wife/person when around him)
The thing that I don't like about this ending is that Brack comes from out of nowhere and just dominates. He shuts everything down. This man tries to blackmail her into loving him. I guess this should be expect that just when she feels comfortable enough with Tesman to actually call hum by his first name which signifies her increased affection ofr him, that all her wrong doings in the past would blow up in her face.
Overall I think Hedda is a strong woman but was naive in thinking that she could controll everyone and not get played eventually. She underestimated him. Brack is like Stalin.

ohhhhhhhh.
hm.
i didn't like the ending either!!!
it's just like..
blahhh.
i mean like, Tesman, sure he's a pushover and all, but i always thought that he knew what he was doing all along! well with Hedda at least...
I actual kinda was diggin tha endin. It was so scandolous!!! Hedda's ruthlessness made it verii interestin. Thruout tha whole stori we as readers got 2 see hedda's exterior hardcore appearance, but 2 see her punk out of lyfe life lik that was kinda kool in a sick and twisted way i guess lolz! Hedda showed her tru colors!
i like that you said brack is stalin. i agree. he just comes in there and everyine kinda does what he wants, and maybe hes not that intimidating at first, but his sneaky little controlling actions are scary in the end. i can see why hedda killed herself.
pshhhh. brack didn't want hedda to love him he just wanted power over her, he isn't a one woman man, he's a many woman man and hedda is just a notch in his belt that he's tryong to conquer. i don't think there was any increased affection on hedda's part either, she was just mocking him and doing what she does and that wasn't because she loved him. good though.
