Question

Write a short note on the consequences of Torvald discovering the truth about Nora.

Short Note

Solution

  1. Torvald initially expresses strong declarations of love and affection for Nora. He denounces her actions vehemently, showing his preoccupation with his social image and reputation rather than understanding her motives.
  2. Torvald's primary concern is how the revelation will affect his social standing. He berates Nora, calling her a liar and criminal, and shows more concern for his own embarrassment than for her sacrifices.
  3. Nora realizes that Torvald's love is conditional and dependent on her subservience and adherence to societal norms. Her response is one of clarity and resolve.
  4. Nora decides to leave Torvald and her children, recognizing the need to discover herself and gain independence.
  5. Realizing the gravity of Nora's decision, Torvald pleads with her to stay. He promises to change and tries to convince her that they can rebuild their lives together.
