How do gender issues contribute to the conflict in Henrik Ibsen's A Dolls House and Federico Garcia Lorca's The House of Bernarda Alba? Gender Issues play a major role in contributing to the conflicts of Henrik Ibsen's A Dolls House and Federico Garcia Lorca's The House of Bernarda Alba. These gender issues are brought across by the portrayal of the women, the relationships between men and women, the isolation that is suffered by t
he female characters and how through all this they undergo a build up in character. It is strongly brought across that it is the sole duty of a woman to care for her children and to honor and obey her husband. It is brought across that however, that life in such a society comes at a price; one must comply with certain view points and obey certain "rules" of proper conduct, these are in many ways very limiting of freedom, extremely narrow and brutally enforced, if such "rules" are broken, it is unforgivable, as is evident at the play's ending. The society that is portrayed for the reader in A Dolls House appears to be an agreeable yet superficial one. When studying Henrik Ibsen's A Dolls House and Federico Garcia Lorca's The House of Bernarda Alba, is important to note the portrayal of women through dialogue. All these factors contribute to an effective endings in both plays, where the central conflict of gender issues is brought to the forefront in a dramatic scene. Ibsen further aids this by the way in which he depicts the society his protagonist, Nora, has grown up in. A Dolls House focuses on the way that women are seen, primarily in the context of marriage and motherhood. Ibsen emphasizes how middle-class life for women indeed was; limiting, brutal and unforgiving.
