Hedda Gabler and Michael Henchard by Ms. Keenan https://padlet.com/keenanp/SummerAssignment1 Chalk talk: What do these protagonists have in common? en-us 2016-06-23 18:10:27 UTC 2016-08-11 17:25:46 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Alarmclock.png Hedda and Henchard are both concerned with social status. Neither wishes to risk losing face, so they deceive others.  Hedda feigns love for Tesman because in her time/place, marriage is an expectation and Tesman appears to have a promising future.  Similarly, Henchard arranges to "marry" Susan when she arrives in Casterbridge, despite already being married to her.  He doesn't love her but feels he must pay for his past sin. keenanp https://padlet.com/keenanp/SummerAssignment1/wish/118033462 2016-08-11 17:17:00 UTC https://padlet.com/keenanp/SummerAssignment1/wish/118033462
