Social Context of A Doll's House

Congratulations on completing your A Doll's House WebQuest!

You should now understand why Ibsen's play was so controversial when it was first produced and appreciate how knowledge of  the social, cultural and historical context of the work can add depth to your understanding of a work of literature.

Also take a moment to consider whether or not we have changed that much since Victorian times. What issues are now considered controversial in art, film and literature?
