Henrik Ibsen, known as the father of modern drama, wrote A Doll's House, published in 1879, based on a real-life story. Ibsen's work challenged the socially accepted views on women in society, however, Ibsen noted his intention was never to advocate for the rights of women. To him, it was always a question of human rights. As his female protagonist, Nora says, "before all else, I am a human being".
