Question

According to this excerpt, Brack tells Hedda he thinks people will shun Lovborg because _____.

a) he got drunk and consorted with a prostitute
b) he was having an affair with a married woman
c) he lost his manuscript
d) his book was really the work of Thea

Answer 1

A). He got drunk and consorted with a prostitute.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this excerpt from 'Hedda Gabler' by Henrik Ibsen, Barack says that he thinks people will eschew Lovborg because he got drunk and associated with a prostitute. As consorting with a prostitute is considered equivalent to an offense and therefore, Gabler pesters him for the previous night's proceedings that may leave him(Lovborg) in a soup. Thus, Gabler had a feeling that people would shun him. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.

Answer 2

a) He got drunk and consorted with a prostitute.

Hedda Gabler is the play's hero and the purpose of crossing point in the lives of its different characters: the activity rotates around her fruitful control of companions, family, and previous darlings.

Ibsen's choice to utilize Hedda's original last name mirrors her freedom and separations her from her benevolent yet unmindful spouse.
