7. Henrik Ibsen’s A Doll’s House is revolutionary in nature as Nora challenges the “woman” in Hannah Arendt’s observations of patriarchal polities such as temperament, sex role, and status, as noted by Kate Millett in her work. Temperament refers to the stereotyped personalities based on sex category—males as aggressive, females as submissive. Sex role denotes that a woman is to raising children and taking care of household, while a man is to being successful to whatever field he pursues. The male, as always, is superior in status, while the female is inferior. Nora defied these patriarchal polities when she turned into an assertive and subversive woman by leaving Torvald and their children, expressing her desire to rediscover herself away from the norms that kept her from “her.”
