In Act 1 of A Doll’s House I feel it helped me learn a lot about Nora. She seems to be so helpless around her husband but as soon as he’s not there she turns in to this strong woman. She’s so scared to be who she is around her husband but, when Krogstad comes she is a very strong women and says what she needs to say. Even though she is really open to krogstad I think she is in reality she is extremely scared of him and what he can do to her family. When Torvald treats Nora like a little kid it makes me think what kind of relationship they really have. It seems more like a daughter father relationship then a husband wife one. I think that Torvald should see Nora as the women she is. I think that Nora needs to have told Torvald the real story of why he shouldn’t have fired Krogstad if he knew the truth he might have had a different view in firing him but Nora is still so scared.
Nora keeps the story interesting don’t you think? She makes most of the drama that is going on. I think there is going to be something else that she is going to. Maybe she will tell Torvald about the money after she pays it off if she does how will he end up reacting to that? When Nora was talking about not being around her kids it made me think if she was going to end up doing something that is going to change how her whole family is. I think she might change a lot. She is very open when her friend comes to see her but mostly everything that she said to her didn’t seem to be the truth and she was just putting on an act don’t you think?
I like how you related their relationship to a daughter father one instead of a husband one. Also Norah is two different people and when someone acts as two people in a relationship it never works, so im excited to see how it ends up. Good post!
ReplyDeleteGood Post ! I also do think a lot of change and chaos is soon to occur in the story because some of the things she says may be foreshadowing other things to come. Like you said how she was talking about not being around the kids anymore.
ReplyDeleteNora does keep the story very interesting, I have to agree. It does seem like she's putting on an act to everyone as well. She is full of different emotions all the time as well.
