She makes use of simple words to tell the story, but she vividly depicts the reality that the discrimination to the poor still exists. This phenomenon influences not only the world of adult but also the world of children. Kezia is the protagonist in The Doll's House. She is different from other members in her family. Although she is influenced by the canons in the adult world, she is not totally assimilated by these invisible principles. Kezia's consciousness and unconsciousness play important roles in indicating Katherine Mansfield's attitude towards the discrimination which she doesn't express directly.

As the play shares an open ending, many critics seem to try to find a way out for Nora. Nora is supposed as the first woman to pronounce the "Women Declaration of Independence". She has become the most courageous women for fighting an equal place in family. However, this paper focuses mainly on the comparison between Nora and Kristine the relatively less popular character. Kristine plays a role of girlhood friend of Nora as well as the one who solves the debt problem and brings a new problem into Nora's family. She serves a model for Nora. Ibsen writes Nora as she is, but it is Kristine who leads Nora onto the road of finding herself. Through the image of Kristine we can conclude that Nora might have all kinds road to tread before her but each one leads to a home-her true home.展开更多

However, the two heroines in these two plays, Nora Helmer and Lady Macbeth, demonstrate similar feminist qualities. By staging an overall contrastive analysis on the personality and tragic life of two protagonists from the perspective of feminism, it is founded that both of them are victims oppressed by the patriarchal system and they all have feminine consciousness against this system. Nevertheless, their distinctive complex personalities and different story settings make the reasons for their rebellion differ in many ways and they end up with different endings.展开更多
