= Not funny :( | Valentin Popa [20.Feb.05 04:58] |
I must confess I was strongly put off by this article, beginning with its title. No matter how hard I try I can't seem to recall anything humorous about the above-mentioned novel. What you refer to as humorous, I find ironic, rather sadly ironic, a foreplay to the dramatic outcome. I consider that Ibsen's work is one of the most representative in giving an image of the middle-aged woman and what she deals with, two centuries ago as well as nowadays. I don't think being treated as a child and being called names, even as a sign of affection, can be considered funny when the poor woman is working her only to be given some credit, to seize standing for a decorative object, a mother or a wife, to prove to herself and maybe later on to the world that she is also a human being, not only a doll. | |
