A Doll’s House explores the oppression of women. The female character Nora leaves her husband
and children because she wants a life of her own. To 19th Century
Europe the idea of a woman not only forsaking her marriage vows but also
displaying a mind of her own and renouncing her duty of unquestioning obedience
to her husband was considered indecent and scandalous.
Ghosts 1882:
Ghosts touched on subjects that were completely forbidden,
dealing with Syphilis, Adultery, Free Love, Incest and Euthanasia. It caused a
violent uproar and none of the theatres staged it.
