This paper highlight's Henrik Ibsen's contribution to the female liberation struggle through three of his major works: Ghost, Hedda Gabbler and A Doll's House.

Summary[edit]

Description
English: The play Ghost by Henrick Ibsen induced controversy (Sprinchorn, 2021) throughout Norway which meant that the first staging of the play was done in Chicago, United States rather than in Norway, the land of Ibsen’s birth. I believe that the themes that he explored by today’s standards are by no means radical, but in 19th century European society were revolutionary. The master playwright was able to challenge the status quo and place on the agenda issues that evoked silence from most of his fellow writers but were important to those who struggled for equality in a paternalistic society. What is clear to me from reading some of his best works, such as Ghost, A Doll’s House and Hedda Gabbler and relating them to the time in which he lived, is that Ibsen was striving to be unique and perhaps to spark discussion around issues that were important to him.
