When decisions made to protect her husband come back to haunt her, \u003cstrong\u003eNora\u003c\/strong\u003e must fight for her family and for her own place in the world.Since its first theatrical run, in which every performance was sold out, A Doll's House has inspired admiration, controversy, and discussion. First published by Ibsen in \u003cstrong\u003e1879\u003c\/strong\u003e in Danish, the official language of Danish-ruled Norway, A Doll's House sold out its first two printings within months. It first premiered at the \u003cstrong\u003eRoyal Theatre\u003c\/strong\u003e in Copenhagen within a month of publication, and the play was performed in Germany in \u003cstrong\u003e1880\u003c\/strong\u003e and London in \u003cstrong\u003e1884\u003c\/strong\u003e.Initial translations changed the play, particularly the ending, to be more sympathetic and acceptable. Ibsen considered these changes to be a \"barbaric outrage.\" It wouldn't be until \u003cstrong\u003e1889\u003c\/strong\u003e that the play was performed as written in London and Broadway.Ibsen's work pioneered realistic depictions of middle class families and social themes. He claimed that he didn't have feminist intentions in the writing of A Doll's House, instead aiming for \"the description of humanity,\" but the play is widely considered an essential feminist work and has had a real lasting impact: as recently as \u003cstrong\u003e2006\u003c\/strong\u003e, it was the most performed play in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Les Prairies Numeriques","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47568434200727,"sku":"9791043133275","price":2015.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9791043133275.webp?v=1774868282","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/a-dolls-house-9791043133275","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
