hedda gabler - themes

since reading all of hedda gabler, i cant help but notice that there has been an overwhelming presence of betrayal. for example, when hedda flirts with other men behind george tesmans back and when she reveals thea's true fears regarding lovborg and even when she burns lovborgs manuscript to end the connection between thea and lovborg in hopes that she could get close to lovborg once again.
also the way that judge brack blackmails hedda under his control using the pistol that she gave lovborg as his instrument.
