The Doll
In the late eighteen hundreds, a Norwegian writer, Henrik Ibsen wrote The Doll's House. He portrayed how women and men treated each other during this time period and how women were treated in general. Ibsen wrote this play about a husband and wife that never really knew each other. When there is no honesty in a marriage, it is not going to work. Ibsen showed that conflict and deception in a relationship leads to a tragic ending. To begin, Nora has a lot of problems in her life at this time. She is expecting a baby, her father is dying, and her husband is very sick. Dr. Rank tells Nora that Torvald must move from the chilling weather of Norway to a warmer climate, like Italy. Otherwise, her husband could die. She does not want to tell Torvald that he is sick, because she does not want to worry him, but Nora has no money to move their family to Italy for a year. This poses another problem for Nora. She cannot get a loan because she is a woman and Torvald won't sign for one because he
Torvald is controlling and self-centered. As a result of Torvald actions, she decides to leave him and their children. He does not think of the trouble that Nora went through all of these years, he only cares about himself. Nora should have told Torvald the truth from the beginning, and how she feels about their relationship. As a result, Nora forges her father's signature to get the money. When there is dishonesty and conflicts in a relationship for a long period of time, there can only be a tragic ending. Nora tries everything she can think of to keep Torvald from knowing the truth. She did not want anything to do with her family ever again. In conclusion, Nora and Torvald's marriage is ridiculous. Torvald controlled Nora's entire life, even what she ate. Krogstad knew there was a glitch in the loan receipt. On Christmas Eve, Krogstad, which is who Nora received the loan from, comes to her door to see her husband. Krogstad worked at the Joint Stock Bank, were Torvald was soon to be the manager.
