Comparison from Hedda to Bernarda from Berarda Alba

Hedda is a lot like Bernarda…or at least seems to be. She seems so mean and straight forward, just like Bernarda. Both of them want complete power over others. Bernarda wants power over her household, while Hedda want just plain control over whoever she can get control of. They are different, though. Mostly because of the fact that Bernarda pretty much HAS control, and Hedda acts like she does at the beginning, but she really has no control, except through death. Its so sad that Hedda had to resort to suicide to finally gain control of even their own lives.
