Hello fellow bloggers! I'm Anand Patel, a sophomore at Bloomfield High School. Also, I'm in English 2 taught by Ms. Santos. The class is quite exciting since no one is ever quiet and my classmates are hilarious most of the time.
As of now, we started on A Doll's House by Henrik Ibsen. The author was a 19th-century Norwegian playwright, theatre director, and poet. He was known to be "the godfather" of modern drama and is one of the founders of Modernism in the theatre. Modernism is the idea of individualism, mistrust of institutions (government, religion), and the disbelief of any absolute truths.
I'm starting to think that the title of the play means how the characters may relate to Dolls. They may have no emotions or unsecure/unnoticed emotions and actions between the characters. Within an organized world, representing a house of a doll or figure.
