Three stages of 'A Doll House.' (play by Henrik Ibsen)

Article Abstract:

'The Doll House' reflects three progressive stages of Henrik Ibsen's theater. The play presents and modifies the audience's perception of the world, the dramatic principles illustrating the perception of the world and the author's perception of the world. Ibsen makes the audience realize the existence of a theater of dissolving world-images. Ibsen signals to the audience that he is evolving the terms of his dramatic art.

Ibsen's cycle as Hegelian tragedy

Article Abstract:

The twelve realist dramas of Henrik Ibsen can be seen as a three-part cycle that shows humanity experiencing the spiritual recollection described by Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel. These 10 stages began with the supernatural and metaphysical layers, including national identity and generational conflicts, and ending in the unconscious realm.

"Diverse galskaber" in Ibsen's 'The Wild Duck.' (Henrik Ibsen)

Article Abstract:

Henrik Ibsen's 'The Wild Duck' contains more than one level of dramatic metaphor. Behind the realistic plot is an archetypal story with much Christian symbolism. His technique allows Ibsen to derive imaginative meaning from the world. Ibsen declines modernity's attempt to erase the mythic and spiritual part of human existence.
