Ibsen and Nala

author:Beautiful encyclopedia miscellaneous

"Nala" is a masterpiece by the Danish writer Ibsen (1828-1906), originally called "Doll's House", which is a heart-stirring play. At the beginning of the play, Nala seems to be just a lively and gentle woman, a bird of her husband, but as the plot unfolds, the author writes that she has insight and character, and she can suffer and be cruel for the people she loves. Later, she clearly saw her husband's shallowness, hypocrisy, and selfishness, so she resolutely got rid of the "happy" home and ran away. She didn't want to be a doll anymore, she wanted to be a person. Some people compare Nala's words in the last scene to a declaration of women's independence. Because of this, "Nala" has a place in the world literary world, and Ibsen has begun to enter the world literary world. At that time, this script made some people shudder, because it went against the traditional concept and exposed the vulgar hypocrisy of the "happiness" of the bourgeois family. The performance of "Nala" has embarrassed some theater managers, who are reluctant to promote women's liberation on stage. In Germany, for example, Ibsen had to give it a happy ending when performing, replacing the original excellent dramatic ending with a sad ending, which shows how deeply this play touched bourgeois morality.

The playwright Ibsen also grew up under hardship, loneliness and pressure. His father was a timber merchant, and when Ibsen was 8 years old, his father went bankrupt, and from the changes in his life, Ibsen saw the coldness and warmth of human feelings and the coldness of the world. At the age of 16, he left home to work as a pharmacy apprentice and began to live independently. In his heavy work, Ibsen stole the time to read and study. Later, shocked by the storm of the international revolution of 1848, he devoted himself to political activities and began to write poems and plays. Throughout his life, he opposed violence and embraced liberalism. Representative works include "Social Pillar", "Doll's House", "Group of Ghosts", "Enemy of the People" and so on.
