Analysis of A Doll House

Ibsen broke away from the romantic tradition with his realistic portrayals of individual characters and his focus on realistic concerns as he sought to portray the real world, especially the position of women in society.
             Ibsen consistently asserted that A Doll House examined issues facing humanity rather than women in particular. The women's movement embraced him as one of the leading champions of its causes after the publication of the play. Many critics have observed that, regardless of Ibsen's claims no playwright could have created such an assertive, likable heroine without feeling some sympathy for the challenges facing women at the time.
             This play is definitely a unique story written by a very intelligent, complicated writer. He may have written the play in a manner that would lead every reader to draw his or her own conclusions. He has us to find our own interpretation of the play in context with our personal lives and experiences with the opposite sex. The theme may be interpreted by many as a study of the moral laws that men and women are required to follow by nature. It may be based on gender that determines the role of women in society. During the time in which the play took place, society frowned upon women asserting themselves. Women would be expected to play a role in supporting their husbands, taking care of the children, and have the house in perfect order.
             Someone reading the play might say that feminism is a large theme in the story. Throughout the play there are many examples of Torvald treating Nora badly and in a way insulting her because she's a woman. He calls her little pet names, and says that she's frail. Nora also does things according to what Torvald wants, everything thing is done by his standards. He also doesn't allow her to have very much freedom, and he doesn't leave decisions to Nora.
             Nora Perceived by Other Characters in the Victorian age many women were thought of as mere objects.
