To understand how a structural theorist would explain the presence of middle class crime you have to first understand what the Social Structure Theory stands for.

What Siegel means is that the lower the social class and more disadvantaged and oppressed the population they have more of a reason to commit crime. Everyone knows that 95% of the wealth is…

When I was a little girl, I used to think that all the people in the world speak the same language, and they all have the same skin color. Because, I never met the other kinds of people who are totally different from me. But now I know, there are so many kinds of people living on the same planate.

Unfortunately, it is simply beyond the scope of this paper to analyze the entirety of these two productions of A Doll’s House. As a result, three scenes will be compared, contrasted, and analyzed through Butler’s theory in order to examine these gender performances. The three scenes chosen for this endeavor are as follows: Nora’s discussion with Torvald in the very beginning of Act I, Nora practicing the tarantella dance before the party in Act II, and Nora and Torvald’s final confrontation in…
