The Cherry Orchard

1.) Lubov had problems with letting the Orchard go and giving up her past (connection with the orchard), this was her first emotion towards the situation. As time went on she was able to let loose and give up the Cherry Orchard, this didn't mean she wasn't still emotionally connected to it but she kind of grew out of her flaw.

2.) Lopakhin and Lubov relationship is one that has many phases. The first phase was they were cool and had no problems with one another, out of respect. But when the play progresses he says he will help her sell the Orchard, but it ends up to be to himself. So this actually, in my eyes, came to be the best solution because she sold the Orchard to someone she knew and not a stranger who might have wrong intentions.

3.) The Cherry Orchard is connected to a lot of People and shows how they love and are connected to it. Gayev, Lobov, Anaya, and Yasha are the main characters connected to the Cherry Orchard. Gayev loves the Orchard and reminisces about all the memories and different furniture they have that connects to it. Lobov grew up in the house and was raised their so this Orchard is the only place she ever called home, she might not adapt that easy to a different setting. Anaya and Yasha are connected and love it through their mother Loboy, who raised them their as an only mother.

4.) The relationships are different because Lubov and Paris are more in love and its an affectionate way, while Trophimof and Anya are more of being their and helping the other one, not completely out of love though.

5.) Fir is the only character that Lubov can come and vent to, in relieving her stress. So without him their would be a lot more problems inside of Lubov.

6.) This scene shows significance because it showing they went from being not to friendly and agreeable to the complete opposite. They matured from the mindset of them not being able to connect, with money not being an issue.

7.) He doesn't fully understand the meaning of love and didn't find the meaning. So, this gives him the feeling that proposing isn't the right thing to do, love isn't for him.

8.) I agree with Trophimof in a way because he isn't emotionally attached to the orchard which makes him have less worries and be freer to live life. When you loose something your emotionally attached to, you take time to recover whereas Trophimof doesn't need that because he's not connected. I do feel that you should be emotionally connected to something because you have something to hold on to, so in a way he's free but also doesn't have any care.

10.) Gayef plays imaginary billiards throughout the play because it shows that he appreciates and loves the history of the cherry orchard. His soul and life is stamped in the orchard in a way, he looks back at the past and reminisces at all the good times. Anything could spark this
