What the

What the crap Dan are you sexist against men or something cause I would say these last few peices have been pretty sexist. But any ways that isn't what I got on here to blog about. I thing Torvald is a terrible character he is shallow and self center, also he's arrogant. I just think in all reality though he isnt the antagonist or hero in thie play although he is important he is just a round character. The true antagonist of this play is Nora, she has all her little secrets that cause the action of this play and Krogstad is the hero doing what must be done when no one else would and revealing the true of what happened. But really the only person in this play with any courage is Mrs. Linde cause she see's everyone for what they are and instead of saving poor stupid Nora form her secrets, she instead lets the truth come out allowing a kind of resulotion. Kristine gives everyone the opportunity to show their true colors even Krogstad so maybe Kristine is the Hero mmm... now that is an idea. The women lead though whole play and the men are just there reacting to what the women do. So is that the moral of this story that Women lead the world no matter what men think? I like that. I'm going to have to think on that some more.

  1. I would have to disagree a little with the what was said of Kristine. Although she did in a way help Nora and Helmer by making sure that the little secret got out, I would definitely say that her motives were not very pure. She was looking for someone to take care of, sometone to give her life meaning, which just so happened to coincide with helping to bring the big secret to light. It was rather good of Krogstad to return the IOU, but once again it was a bit of a selfish motive that drove him, obviously because it would help him to win the love of Kristine. So really I think this story is about much more than Kristine and her heroism.

  2. See I think that Kristine was being a good friend. Sometimes the truth hurts and it takes an outsider to see the truth of a relationship. I would be glad to have a friend like Kristine.
