Truth and Identity in "A Doll's House" and "Oedipus the King".
This essay compares and contrasts the concept of "truth" in Ibsen's "A Dollhouse" and in Sophocles' "Oedipus the King." The characters of Nora, and Oedipus are discussed as two people who seek a truth about themselves" however, Nora's search for the truth about her identity results in her freedom and Oedipus' search for the truth results in tragedy. In the end, Nora is free from society's rules, but can still live in society. Oedipus discovers he is not free at all, but is in fact condemned to a fate determined by a truth he has no control over. 3 pgs, bibliography lists 2 sources.
