Blood Wedding Journal #5

One major archetype is the traditional wedding of this time. This would consist of one man and one woman who would marry and they would stay married until the end. In the play a marriage is about to start, but it fails before it even begins. I think Lorca rejects this archetype and to do that he shows how one family is split up by two long lovers and their desire for love from each other and how it overcomes the love that they have for their spouse.
