Notes
"A Doll's House," a play written by Henrik Ibsen in 1879, is a critical exploration of societal norms and gender roles in the late 19th century. The narrative follows Nora Helmer, who initially appears to be a dutiful wife and mother. As the plot unfolds, Nora realizes the constraints placed upon her by her husband, Torvald, and the broader society. Her journey towards self-discovery and emancipation culminates in a dramatic decision to leave her family, challenging the traditional roles of women and sparking significant debate about marriage and individual rights. Ibsen's play is celebrated for its bold commentary on the struggle for female autonomy and remains a significant work in feminist literature.
