A Doll’s House, Connections to Today?

Published by buell under History

So, obviously the purpose of the Doll’s House assignment was to help you understand the condition of women in the 1800s and also to showcase how a certain author, Henrik Ibsen, spoke out in favor of women’s rights.  However, I wonder if there are any lessons from this story that we can relate to in 2008?  Secondly, I wonder if any of you can think of an artist or author or performer who uses his or her talents to not only entertain, but also to speak out against a social injustice.
