Thea shows more bravery than Hedda because she overcomes her fear of Hedda to befriend her, knowing that it was Hedda who tormented her in school, "Hedda: Frightened? Of me? Mrs. Elvsted: Oh, dreadfully frightened. When we met on the steps you used to pull my hair. Hedda: No, did I really? Mrs. Elvsted: Yes, and once you said you were going to burn it off.". Thea was also bound by convention more than was Hedda, in that she also has the courage to leave her husband, which was quite uncommon in those days. She was brave enough to tell Lovborg what she thought of him when thought that he had destroyed the manuscript, Lovborg say,"Yes, I tell you. Into a thousand pieces. And scattered them out in the fjord." To this Thea replies, "I want you to know, Lövborg, what you’ve done to the book… For the rest of my life it’ll be for me as though you’d killed a little child."

Hedda was not a woman of bravery, but a woman driven by impulse. Heedless of what others may think of her or how it might adversely affect them, she acts. Nor was she a person of convention. At every turn Hedda fought against having to play the role of simple housewife. We se this in her hatred of the though tof becoming a mother and in her shooting guns in the back yard, which was considered very unwomanly.

When i was young enough to still spend a long time buttoning my shoes in the morning, i'd listen toward the hall: daddy upstairs was shaving, in the bathroom, and mother downstairs was frying the bacon. they would begin whispering back and forth to each other up and down the stairwell. my father would whistle his phrase, my mother would try to whistle, then hum hers backi drew my buttonhook in and out and listened to it -know it was "the merry widow." the difference was, their song almost floated with laughter. how different from the record, which growled from the beginning, as if the victrola were only slowly being wound up. they kept it running between them, up and down the stairs where i was now just about ready to run clattering down and show them my shoes. what is the effect of the parallelism used in the above excerpt? it establishes the rhythm of a duet to echo the song. it expresses the same ideas. it mirrors opposite ideas. it is a paradox.
