dessskris Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 hello, I only read Doll's House and not the other work, but I think there was no silence between Nora and Torvald? was there any? when? because I remember lies but not silences or maybe there were some.. but I don't know, maybe there were but it wasn't a dominant element in the work. is it possible for you to change your topic?

Proletariat Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 A Doll's House is a play, so the only way to actually say "this is my example of silence" is to note where Ibsen specifically wrote out the direction of "pause." You could maybe keep the same spirit of investigation, but look instead at the nature/character of the two relationships, and use stage direction as an example.
