A Comparison of the Ideas of Marriage in Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House” Wollstonecraft’s “A Vindication of the Rights of Women”
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper comparing marriage in Henrik Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House” and Mary Wollstonecraft’s “A Vindication of the Rights of Women”. In a comparison of Henrik Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House” (1879) and Mary Wollstonecraft’s “A Vindication of the Rights of Women” (1792), Ibsen tells the story of an unequal relationship in the marriage of Nora and Torvald; an inequality which Wollstonecraft states shouldn’t exist in a marriage. For Wollstonecraft, a marriage is a social contract in which both partners are equal in their education and commitment to the education of the children and the betterment of the social and public life of the state. Without this equal commitment and mutual respect, the education of the children, a priority for the wife, will suffer and it will also lead to an eventual demise in the strength of the ties which exist between the social and public life of the state. Nora and Torvald’s marriage does eventually break down because of the inequality which does exist in the relationship with Nora having little or no control over her own life or the lives of her children’s. Another relationship within “A Doll’s House” which is more consistent with the ideas of Wollstonecraft does exist between Mrs. Linde and Krogstad. Their relationship is built on mutual respect, affection and the equality they offer each other in regards to their hard work and business matters. From Wollstonecraft’s perspective, their relationship would be one that is more consistent with that described in her “Vindication”. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

A Comparison of Two Poetic Depictions of Old Age: A Comparison of the Work of Ursula Fanthorpe and Jenny Joseph
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page contrast of the realities of old age and the plans we often make for our golden years in the throws of the optimism of youth. The author reviews the basic premises of these two poems, one planning outrageous behavior and excesses for her old age and the other bound by his worn out body and mind, to conclude that these two poems are as different as reality and fantasy. As disturbing as it may be to authors like Jenny Joseph, old age is not always a thing which we can plan for. In comparison, “Old Man, Old Man” by Ursula Fanthorpe is a more realistic portrayal of the way that the circumstances of old age, despite all your plans to the contrary, can catch up with you. No additional sources are listed.
