"A Doll's House" is Ibsen's masterpiece on women's issues, and it is also a work that represents his highest ideological and artistic achievements. The script describes that the heroine Nora forges her father's signature to borrow money in order to treat her husband's illness. Eight years later, her husband Helmer, who had just become a bank manager, decided to fire Krogstad, a bank employee. Krogstad was the creditor at that time, and the creditor wrote to Helmer to threaten him. After Helmer found out, he was deeply afraid that this matter would affect his future and reputation, and angrily denounced Nora as a "lying, lowly woman" who would ruin his "lifelong happiness." When the creditor took the initiative to return the IOU under the influence of Nora's girlfriend Mrs. Lin Dan (Krogstad's old lover), Helmer pretended to smile at his wife again, calling her his "little bird" and "little bird". Baby,” claiming that he had “forgiven” his wife. But Nora has seen through Helmer's extreme selfishness and hypocrisy, realized that she was just his doll, no longer trusted him, and left this "doll's house" decisively and bravely.

Through the story of Nora’s awakening and running away, Ibsen profoundly exposed the hypocrisy and irrationality of laws, religion, morality, love, marriage, etc. in capitalist society, and proposed the idea of ??liberating women from the enslavement of men. problem. Nora is a gentle and kind-hearted woman. In order not to worry her sick father and husband, she forged her father's signature to borrow money for her husband's medical treatment. She endured hardship silently for many years, taking her husband's hobbies as her hobbies and her husband's happiness as her passion. She is happy, thinking that her husband loves her, thinking that she is happy, and is content to be her husband's "little baby". When her creditor threatens, Nora waits for a "miracle" to happen: her husband will bravely defend her with a broad chest. But the miracle didn't happen, and Nora was completely disappointed. Helmer is a male chauvinist at home and a defender of bourgeois morality, law and religion in society. On the surface, Helmer is a "gentleman" and a "model husband" who seems to love his wife very much. In fact, he just treats Nora as an ornament and a piece of private property. What really matters is his reputation. status. Ironically, in order to express his "love" for his wife, Helmer even claimed that he hoped for a huge disaster to occur so that he would have the opportunity to show himself as a "real man." The play exposes the hypocrisy of bourgeois marriage and affirms Nora's running away, which has progressive social significance. In fact, under the historical conditions at the time, Nora was able to support herself through her own work just like Mrs. Lin Dan did after running away. But how to achieve true liberation for women, Ibsen did not know. He only raised the problem in the play, but did not propose a way to solve the problem. And when he tries to come up with solutions to problems (as in "Lady from the Sea"), his solutions are wrong and unrealistic.

The script has prominent themes, distinct characters, tight structure, and concentrated plots. The development of contradictions is both reasonable and orderly. The author arranges the plot within three days before and after Christmas to highlight the contrast between the joyful atmosphere of the holiday and the family tragedy; Krogstein, a bank clerk, was fired by Helmer, so he used an IOU to blackmail Nora into working for him. Keeping her position is the main thread, which leads to the intertwining of various conflicts between the characters. In just three days, the heroine experienced a fierce and complex inner struggle: from calm to chaos, from fantasy to rupture, and finally completed herself. Awakening, thus achieving an extremely strong dramatic effect.
