<span>This excerpt reflects the themes of power/control and rebellion against it.

The scene begins by Nora reflecting on the power her husband has over others. He does not, however, have the same power over her, as this scene proves.

Although he has "forbidden" her from eating macaroons for fear they will ruin her teeth, Nora is able to avoid his command and have some anyway. She begins by having one, then says maybe she'll have two.

As the rest of the play will illustrate, Nora is not the type of woman who can be controlled by her husband. Therefore, </span>power/control and rebellion against it is a major theme of the play and is reflected by this excerpt.

Consider Dickinson’s poems "I Started Early—Took My Dog" and “Apparently with No Surprise.” Which topic do the two poems share?

Artyom0805 [142]

Both poems show the intensity of the forces of nature.

This can be seen because:

In "I Started Early—Took My Dog," the author shows the liveliness and influence of the sea. She does it as a metaphor for what a man would be able to do with her life.
In "Apparently with No Surprise," the author shows how frost is capable of killing a flower, without any mercy. She uses it to make a metaphor about the end of life.

Both poems portray the author's very deep thoughts, she had much stronger thoughts about life, death, and passions and for this reason used the force of nature to represent these thoughts.

Furthermore, it is necessary to emphasize that the topic of a poem is one of the subjects that the poem addresses.
