Back Into Society Jean Valjean
636 words
During the 19 th century the treatment of both
convicts and ex-convicts was in most peoples eyes
inhumane. A convict would be worked for long hours

again excluded and not considered a part of
society. When Jean Valjean is finally released
from the galle...

Hedda Gabler Vs Miss Julie
1,916 words
Hedda Gabler vs. Miss Julie The plays Miss Julie
and Hedda Gabler of August Strindberg and Henrik
Ibsen have many familiar motifs, which makes one
to wonder about whether the main themes of both
plays had been originated by the realities of 19
th century, as many critics suggest, or by the
specifics of Scandinavian existential mode alone.
Both Strindberg and Ibsen are known for their

the time when feminism began to gain more and more
influence, bot...
