When he neglects a part of himself he faces inner conflict until he is able to find a resolution by concerning himself with his own identity instead of the outside forces surrounding him.

During the late 19th and early 20th century in Norway, women were experiencing an increasingly empowered role in family life (NNC/UNESCO.5). For women, seeking independence in a life traditionally dominated by a male influence was frowned upon in many social circles (NNC/UNESCO.3). Throughout the novel “A Doll’s House”, Emma is constantly subjugated by her husband, Torvald Helmer. At the beginning of the novel, Nora is treated by Torvald as being small and insignificant. This reflects the social norms at the time, where women in western society were generally treated as subservient to the husbands.

Henrik Ibsen wrote the play A Doll’s House in 1879. In the play Ibsen describes how the society trapped women in marriages and how they carry no value to the family. Just like Stasz Clarice writes “Society, particularly through social class, structures men and women alike to be insensitive and inhumane.” Nora Helmer is apparently happily married to Torvald, he is a lawyer who is about to be promoted to a management position. They have three small children. Early in their marriage Torvald became seriously ill, and the doctors advised a stay in a more southerly climate. Nora had to get hold of the money for the journey in secrecy and so borrowed it from Krogstad, a lawyer who had been a coworker of Torvald. As security for the loan she forged her dying father’s signature. Ever since then she has saved some of the housekeeping money in order to pay back the loan with interest, and she has taken on small jobs to earn some money herself. When the play opens, an old friend of Nora’s, Mrs. Linde, has arrived in town to look for work, and Nora sees to it that Torvald gives her a post at the bank. But this means that Krogstad is dismissed from his post at the bank, and in desperation he goes to Nora and threatens to tell Torvald about the loan and the forgery unless he is allowed to keep his post. Nora considers asking Dr. Rank, an old friend of the family, for the money, but when he declares his love for her, she finds it impossible

There is a huge difference in the judgments that are made in the moral system and the behaviors and the character trait the characters possess. This play is mainly written because Ibsen feels angry that people suffer from repression and are deprived of joy. He is surely optimistic to break free of society and to having the courage to be yourself and mainly to have ‘livesklegn’ and factors like class and gender should not determine. Soren Kierkegaard is one that understands Ibsen, ‘Boredom is root of all evil-the despairing refusal to be oneself’, just like all his other quotes it summarize the things that mattered to Ibsen. Society in Norway is one that militates against self-realization. You could have never been a complete individual in the 19ths century in

A Doll’s House was published in Norway in 1879 by Henrik Isben. He is known as the father of Modern Theatre. He is also referred as the father of realism. The play is very interesting because of the funny dialogue, the unique characters, and Ibsen 's view of the place of ladies in the public eye. The main characters of the play is Nora Helmer and her husband Torvald Helmer. Imagine what it would be like to live in a doll 's home? It 's a house in which you are controlled and have no energy to settle on any solid choice; It 's a house in which you are a play thing for another person 's amusement. This sounds a ton like an awful marriage, so it 's a house in which your husband holds the satchel strings, in a manner of speaking, and abandons you with no influence over your family 's accounts. In fact, your husband keeps you on a tightrope. Such is the perceived life of Nora Helmer.
