San Diego State University Tension in The Doll House Discussion
I’m working on a management writing question and need an explanation to help me study.
In either Henrik Ibsen’s A Doll”s House or Oscar Wilde”s The Importance of Being Earnest, write about the main points of tension that you see between the individual’s sense of right and wrong versus what his/or social world demands of him or her.
