A Doll House
Mrs. Linda on the other hand started at about the same area as Nora, but she did not streak down any dark alley of illness in order to find money or a decent living. She was also married but unlike Torvald he did not survive, leaving Mrs. Linde to the mercy of the elements where she stood her ground on the path of morality and hard work. Mrs. Linde also mentions how Nora "really knows so little of life's burdens". In a way Nora rejects the 'working for a living' life when she commits forgery in order to save her husband's life, thus resulting in her leavin
I think the era during which Ibsen wrote his dramatic literature was when most women's right was questionable. Nora and Torvald on the other hand end up completely quite at the start of the Act III when the notorious letter is about to arrive. Therefore that issue was not viewed to be a major theme in the play 'A Doll House'. These two characters obviously are trying to demonstrate that they know who they are and where they belong. Woman those days were restricted in the house of a man; women just passed on from their father's house to their husband's housed and then onto her children's house. This further goes to show how much of control Nora is to Torvald. Linde since both had to work for a living and make ends meets in whatever manner possible. The punishment given is that Nora may never play or connect herself to her children (another one of Ibsen's issues: sins of the father passed down to the children), furthermore Nora may not leave or associate with anyone else outside of the house; she must stay in the house to make the outside world believe that everything is all right. Linde therefore has more mutual agreement with Krogstad since both give each other status as well as financial support and underlying love. When it finally arrives, Torvald is so grief stricken that he places all blame on Nora and decides to punish her in a most severe way. Now, we are talking about a grown man punishing a grown woman.
