    norms for relationships are no exception to this. For this reason‚ Torvald and Nora’s 1800s era marriage‚ is no where near typical by today’s standards and morals. The first drastic difference between Torvad and Nora’s relationship and today’s relationships is that their relationship was more like a father-daughter relationship than a husband-wife one because of their power imbalance. Both parties acknowledge this imbalance. Torvald literally refers to Nora as a child when he says‚ “The child [Nora]

    Ibsen’s use of symbolism is also evident in the dialogues exchanged between Nora and Torvald. From the very beginning of the play‚ the type of language and the ways in which Nora and Torvald communicate appear to be significant in characterizing their relationship. This is especially evident in Torvald’s numerous notable references to Nora‚ such as “my little squirrel‚” “my little spendthrift‚” “little featherbrain‚” “my dearest treasure‚” and “[m]y obstinate little woman” (4‚ 5‚ 59‚ 57‚ 26).

Although one may argue that Torvald is also at fault‚ it is evident that Nora’s constant mishaps throughout the play are the main reason for the problems in the Helmer’s marriage. Nora’s lies range from small little white lies that she
