"a view form a bridge' is a play set firmly in an immigrant culture, ruled by its own laws' how important are the Sicilian Codes of conduct and honour to the development of the play.
I think that a view from a bridge the Sicilian Codes of conduct and honour are very important to the development of the play as they form an integral part of the plot. The split between the old world Sicilian Codes and the new world American vales is very evident as people form the same families being on different sides of the divide for example Catharine is warming to the new world values where she does what she wants to do but Eddie still believes strongly in the old world values and so tries to control her as he is head of the family, but Beatrice personally believes in the old world values but acknowledges Catherine's need to move to the new world values but Eddie will not allow her. This contributes to the development of the play by causing a greater amount of tension than just Rodolfo and Catherine have and creates a conflict of interest between Eddie and Catherine, because Eddie could not control her and Catherine did not think she should be controlled.
