Which themes of Henrik Ibsen's A Doll's House are reflected in this excerpt from act 1 of the play? NORA (Smiling and humming):

That's my affair! (Walking about the room) It's perfectly glorious to think that we have—that Torvald has so much power over so many people. (Takes the packet from her pocket) Doctor Rank, what do you say to a macaroon? RANK: What, macaroons? I thought they were forbidden here. NORA: Yes, but these are some Christine gave me. MRS. LINDE: What! I?— NORA: Oh, well, don't be alarmed! You couldn't know that Torvald had forbidden them. I must tell you that he is afraid they will spoil my teeth. But, bah!—once in a way—That's so, isn't it, Doctor Rank? By your leave! (Puts a macaroon into his mouth) You must have one too, Christine. And I shall have one, just a little one—or at most two. (Walking about) I am tremendously happy. There is just one thing in the world now that I should dearly love to do.

The themes that are reflected in the excerpt are the following:

  • Control and rebellion against it. The excerpt states that Torvald, Nora's husband has "much power over so many people" but the fact that Nora eats a macaroon (which is forbidden) shows that she rebels against that control.
  • Love and marriage. Nora and Torvald enjoy playing the role of a common married couple of that time. Even though Nora claims to always obey Torvald she breaks the law of marriage at that time when she disobeys her husband who has banned her from eating macaroons.
