Act II Reflection

                      In Act II many things are being revealed. Things like Nora wanting to leave her children to Dr. Rank finally telling Nora that he loves her. So many things are going on and Nora is stressing. But of course, she had to come up with the idea of leaving her kids. This is the most ridiculous thing a mother can do.

                       Yes, she probably hasn't made the right decisions but she also shouldn't be so hard on herself. Her intention was only to save her husband. The idea of leaving her children just bothers me. Nora believes she a "bad influence " on her kids, but why doesn't she think of what's going to go through her kids heads once she leaves . To me she's being a little selfish. She probably thinks this is the best things to do, but at the end of the day her children are just going to be people who grew up without a mother.


"A mother's love for her child is like nothing else in the world. It knows no law, no pity, it dares all things and crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path."
-- Agatha Christie

Act 1 :]

                   Act I introduced us all to the conflict of A Doll's House. Nora made the bad decision of forging hers father signature. Krogstad is going to take advantage of this to make Nora convince Helmer no to fire him. She did this all to save her husbands life. Nora was desperate and I think anyone would do the same if they were put through this situation. But the law obviously wont care what her reason were because this is ilegal.
                     We can actually relate to this because I know for a fact that once in our lives we've forged our parents signature. Our grades weren't always the best and in our middle school years we were still required to get tests our signed. In this case we werent desperate, it was probably just the fear we would get grounded or anything of that sort. If we really think about this, it isnt such a big deal but eventually we're going to have to assume the consequences of our actions.

" While we are free to choose our actions, we are not free to choose the consequences of our actions." -Stephen R. Covey

Author : Henrik Ibsen

                   Well hello you guys, I'm Dianna. Learning about Julius Caesar was probably the most interesting thing we did this year so far. I enjoyed reading this play for the simple reason that we can still relate to his work. For example in Julius Caesar he talks about betrayal and now-a-days we see alot of this.
                   Henrik Ibsen was born in Norway on March 20, 1828 and died on April 23, 1906. His family went bankrupt which lead for him at the age of 15 to move. He worked as a pharmacists assistant. During this time was when he wrote his first play. After returning to his hometown he lived the worst years of his life there. Due to these hard times in his life he spent the rest of his life in Germany and Italy. His plays were mostly about problems that were currently happening back then.
