Compléter Act 2 AnalysisVersion en ligne After completing the reading and summary of Act 2, complete the missing words from this analysis. par Carolyn DAY 1 The second half of Act II sees the drama more conventionally building , through three big : Martirio directly Adela of her illicit passion ; Angustias confronts all the girls over the missing photo ; and Bernarda refuses to heed La Poncia's warning . To use Lorca's , the storm is building . The theme of overbearing is strongly present , especially in the depiction of Martirio . First , while she has thus far seemed depressed to the edge of , she here reveals in her attitude towards Adela a cruel , grounded resentment . She would rather nobody have than Adela be able to the man . This shift in character is explained by the second big revelation about : she is the one who stole the photo . It is telling that even the most outwardly unconcerned character is in fact falling under the sway of sexual . Though she has it , she is in fact overcome by the heat , as Lorca communicates through Martirio's sickness at the " unending summertime . " In the closing moments of this act , all the engage in a argument , most vicious to Angustias , precisely because she is the one primed to be happy soon .

He's not the catch , but rather the catch is simply a man , someone who can provide them relief from their smothering . After all , La Poncia made clear earlier in the act that marriage does not satiate for long ? but it will satiate in the present , and that's enough .
