A Doll's House, Paperback / softback Book

A Doll's House Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

A Doll's House is a three-act play written by Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen.

The play is significant for the way it deals with the fate of a married woman, who at the time in Norway lacked reasonable opportunities for self-fulfillment in a male-dominated world, despite the fact that Ibsen denied it was his intent to write a feminist play.

It aroused a great sensation at the time, and caused a 'storm of outraged controversy' that went beyond the theatre to the world newspapers and society. UNESCO has inscribed Ibsen's autographed manuscripts of A Doll's House on the Memory of the World Register in 2001, in recognition of their historical value.

The title of the play is most commonly translated as A Doll's House, though some scholars use A Doll House.
