Okay. So act 2 was much more interesting than act 1 if that's believable. Nora is just surrounded by all of the trouble in the entire act. Krogstad begins to blackmail Nora with the forged signature that she wrote for her father. Nora must convince Torvald to give Krogstad the position at the bank instead of giving it to Ms. Linde. Nora becomes Krogstads little puppet and must do whatever he says. She starts to get worried her secret might be brought out to Torvald if she doesn't do what Krogstad says.
Nora also turned into a promiscuous girl when she talks to Dr. Rank. She says she always has time for him and proceeds to show him her silk stockings. She gives off the wrong vibe to Dr. Rank and he then confesses his love for her. At that point, she realizes she's make a mistake and an awkward situation has come up between the two. Meanwhile, Nora could not convince Torvald to let Krogstad keep the job. Krogstad then proceeded to put a letter in the mail explaining the situation of what Nora did and how she forged her father's signature. With the dance coming up, Nora tries to distract Torvald as much as she possibly can. Her attempts to succeed when she convinces him to help her practice her dance since she, "Forgot just about everything."

Good Post, Uhhhh So I believe that Krogstad is being very smart and wise in blackmailing Nora. He's been in the situation also, so hes knows what he is doing. It seems as if Krogstad is playing mind games, acting as if he is sympathetic but then again goes and puts the lettter in the mail. He is in my opinion the best Charcter.
ReplyDeleteReally Nathaniel? Are you serious? You think he was smart blackmailing Nora? I feel that he wasnt smart for doin that because Nora has a family to look after and with Krogstad balcking mailing her is putting her under pressuer that she dosent want her family to see especially her kids. What if somebody blackedmailed you? Huh? Would you like it?
ReplyDeletehahaha kathleen's comment. I agree. I wouldn't appreciate it if someone blackmailed me! and especially since Nora DOES have a family and does not want to look bad to them..
ReplyDeleteto jeo's blogpost- I think Nora was very smart to say she "Forgot just about everything" to Torvald, referring to the Tarantella.
