Wild Duck #3
I think that the prompt is mostly referring to the suicide of Hedvig, so on that note I think that no one is to blame except for Hedvig herself. The reason that I say this is because I recently watched the movie World's Greatest Dad, and I learned that suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Literally if Hedvig had chosen to shoot the duck instead of herself she would realize that Hjalmar still loved her. It is Hedvig's fault that she chose to shoot herself. It may have been that her young age clouded her judgement or maybe her poor eye sight however in the end it would not be fair to blame others for the choices she made. Blaming her actions on Hjalmar would likely destroy him and cause him to become a drunk. Blaming Gregers would accomplish nothing because he feels that he did the right thing. It was Hedvig's choice to select a permanent solution to a temporary problem. In the end no character has any blame for what Hedvig did besides herself. No character should carry the blame more than another. It would be foolish to blame someone else for Hedvig's choices
